My mom was a nurse and learned this the hard way, too. She worked in a nursing home for about 8 months once and hated every minute because of this very thing... they work you to death if you let them. Then went to work in a nice hospital outside the city after that, but even though they did much the same thing she learned to say "no" and was very happy there for over 20 years. Most of that time she worked in PRN pool which she liked even better because she didn't feel like as much responsibility was heaped on her and could concentrate on bedside nursing that she loved and was so good at.
Nursing is already a very stressful and emotionally draining profession as it is without having so much unneeded added stress heaped on you by employers like this.
