At the end of each clinical rotation, we are encouraged to buy a gift and cards for the staff, and our clinical instructor. Does anyone else practice this? Its getting kind of expensive. My last rotation, we got gifts for the nurses, donuts for the staff in the Cath lab, and gifts for another department we observed.At the conclusion of the rotation we all go out to eat. We presented the instructor with a gift, card, and paid for her lunch. I'm going broke.
I do appreciate the help and encouragement I have received from the staff on the floor I am working with, but this is getting a little much.
