My first day as a "REAL" nurse
Update: 2024-02-13
Description
My first job out of nursing school was in the Neuro ICU at a very large hospital in downtown Dallas.
In this particular hospital, new ICU nurses complete a 13 week internship partnered with an experienced nurse (called a preceptor). My preceptors name was Vanessa, she was the typical ICU nurse type - a hardcore, type A nurse.
She trained me well . . . but . . . those 13 weeks came to an end and it was time for me to be all on my own - no safety net to fall back on, no babysitter to make sure I did everything by the book - it was just ME.
To be honest . . . I was terrified.
I wish I'd had a tool like NURSING.com
You CAN do this
Happy Nursing!
