My clinicals, while enjoyable haven't exactly been a challenge for me.
Until yesterday, when at long last, I gained the opportunity to place a foley cathether. Having only had the opportunity to practice this skill on mannequins, it was quite the pleasant surprise that the procedure was almost the same.
First catheter down.
I love the idea of becoming a nurse, more and more.
One more week of med-surg. Two exams next week, with the final (the final!!!!!!!!) being held on Friday. Then, the agony of waiting for scores to be posted. You pass, meaning you pass the class, it's the golden ticket to head to Ob/Peds lab. You fail, meaning you fail the course (76% or less), then, bye, better luck next time. I can't imagine having to repeat this course again.
Am I worried? Oh yes. I can imagine bombing the next two exams and dropping my grade down, so that I don't progress on. The devastation would be....devastating.
There's not much to write this week. I have a minor cold, my roommate is driving me nuts, I'm debating taking out loans to begin my BSN (and subsequently freaking out about said loans.) I'm broke, feel exhausted, and need a hug.
Hopefully by next Friday, I'll be here to tell you about Ob/Peds.
