Hi everyone! No followers yet, but I'm still optimistic! This blog at least keeps me occupied a bit!
So, this evening is my first 12-hour shift at the hospital. I'm a little nervous. I had plenty of clinical experiences in nursing school, but this is the real world and I'm getting paid now, so I want to do a good job. I also want my patients to feel well taken care of. Luckily, I'm going to have an awesome preceptor to help me. She seems super nice, and I look forward to learning from her.
I can think of countless experiences that I've had in the past that have made me nervous before they happened. My first date, piano recitals, plays, exams, and many more. I keep telling myself that all of this stuff turned out okay, so tonight will too. But don't think I'm just a bundle of nerves--I'm also excited to be starting this new chapter in my life. I really look forward to learning more about nursing.
Hopefully I'll be able to post sometime tomorrow about my first night of patient care, but I probably won't because I'll be sleeping in preparation for work tomorrow!
Until next time, peace out!
