♍ Virgo (August 23 - September 22) – The Perfectionist Clipboard Holder 📋

Virgo Nurses are obsessed with organization and charting and let’s be honest, everyone appreciates it. Your notes are pristine, your med passes are flawless, and you’re the first to catch a Physician’s mistake. You are the human version of a well-stocked supply room.

Shift Anthem: "Control" – Janet Jackson

♎ Libra (September 23 - October 22) – The Diplomat of the Unit ⚖️

Shift Anthem: "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" – Whitney Houston

♑ Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) – The Overachiever 🎓
