Just wondering if I should be worrying abou this. I'm a freshman student nurse and started clinical in October. Yesterday was my second clinical in a LTC facility. It just seemed that I (and another student) couldn't seem to do anything right-- just couldn't get our acts together. In one instance we had to get a patient OOB with the Hoyer. Learned this in lab and used the procedure only one other time before. When it came to positioning the sling it became very ackward. Instructor was watching which made us even more nervous and pointing out everything we did wrong or not fast enough which added to the stress. Things went OK after the patient was safely transferred to the shower chair, had her shower and returned to bed but felt like the instructor was watching like a hawk which just made me even more nervous. So now I'm doubting myself. Will probably get a crappy grade for this clinical round but I'm wondering when you were students did you have "off" days on your clinical rounds? And should I worry about this. Thank goodness on an off day I had a truly great patient but I'm kinda bummed out about this. I can't explain why it was a bad day but it worries me.
