Last night I did my first night shift as a caregiver at work. They put me, having never done one before- didn't know what I was doing like... Another caregiver that had only been there three weeks and then the nurse who was also relatively new. We managed to do everything right, have a really good night, with no problems and I came out of it awake ;)
Night shifts are 11pm til 7am and as I wasn't able to sleep before going into work (I tried and failed) I was awake for 24 hours before getting sleep this morning between 8am and 2pm.
Doing night shift isn't really that bad, and in a couple weeks I am down to do another one.
