How Can Nurses Incorporate Stretching into Their Routine?
Nurses can incorporate stretching exercises into their daily routine by: - Starting the Day with a Stretch: Simple stretches in the morning can prepare the body for the day’s physical demands. - Taking Stretch Breaks: Short, frequent breaks throughout the shift to perform a few stretches can help in maintaining flexibility and reducing fatigue. - Post-Shift Stretching: Stretching after a shift can help in relieving muscle tension and promoting recovery.
