In general,people doing shift work need to maintain as consistent a sleep and mealtime schedule as possible.Some nurses often ease their coping with shift work by knowing their own circadian rhythms.A nurse who typically thinks well at night and tends to sleep late in the morning will adapt better to night shift than to day shift.Rotating shifts prevent establishment of a consistent sleep and mealtime schedule.
