Whoo! Today was my first day of clinicals as a CNA. I feel so drained and I came home so sad for the residents in the LTC Facility. I know what you learn in class and clinicals are completely different, because you have to get the job done, but I actually came home crying about just seeing individuals in the state that they were in. A lot reminded me of my older family members and it brought a tear to my eye. I'm glad I'm there to help out , but I know that nursing is not for me so far. I know I shouldn't base it on one day but this is how I feel. Did everyone else feel like that. ?? Also , I feel like I'm the only one who kept needing help running into issues with taking individuals to the restroom. WHy do I feel so out of place. everything else is coming to me but I feel so lost. :uhoh3:breath , sleep, and lets do it allover again tomorrow. :) :)
