TIRED VEINS


NURSES, NURSES,

Don't we all know how tired our feet feel at the end of our shift.
Remember that veins by their very nature are sluggish, so after long-standing they will always swell. Here are some helpful hints:
-Try elevating your legs about twice a day if possible, at least once after your shift is over and you are at home. This will promote good drainage of your veins and less wall damage.
-Also remember to wear good fitting shoes that are wide enough and have good support.
HAPPY FEET!
Enjoy watching the Clinical Videos for Nurses.
