Im pretty sure this is one of the most commonly asked questions of new grad nurses.
I have asked MANY people this question and would like to get additional input.
When does one truly feel comfortable as a nurse? Does this vary depending on the person??
I know some people can catch onto the flow quite quickly, while others may take additional time.
Typically, I am a fast learner. I learn by doing things so I always look for the opportunity to try new skills, or learn something new.
With that being said, when did YOU feel comfortable as a nurse? Most of the people I have asked have said around the one year mark is when they felt like a good competent nurse.
What is your guys' opinion?
