Hey, needing to vent...I wish so bad that the nurses at clinicals would treat the student nurses at least like human beings. We are there to learn, and to a degree I think we help them out and save them time by doing "little stuff" they don't have time for. Last week a pt. kept asking for the nurse and was crying in pain, I went to the nurse to tell her what was going on and before I could say anything she said "I can't get a thing done with you student nurses talking to me and asking me questions all the time" I told her the problem anyway and she says, "next shift can deal with the pt" which was 30 minutes away. Her supervisor told her not ever to talk like that to us again, we were there to help--but out of 5 nurses only 1 is decent to us. Oh, the subject gets me so aggravated. I pray to God that when I am a nurse, I will take a second before I bite a studen't nurses head off and remember how tough things can get in school. PATIENCE is a virtue-just wish they knew that. We are supposed to take them cookies to clinical to thank them--and this will be sooo hard. I wish they could watch a tape of themselves and take a look at how they talk to us--nobody deserves to be so degraded! They should be ashamed!Sorry I have drug this on so long, I'm sure some of yall can relate. Thanks for the ear!
