Thought I'd ask for a little input --
I'd heard about Ultrascopes and really wanted one, so I ordered mine last summer, as a reward for getting to my last year of NS. I didn't use it this year in clinicals because I was afraid I'd lose it, etc. Now I'm weeks away from graduation and will probably be working on a telemetry floor at my local hospital. I am so excited but now when I look at my brand-new Ultrascope, I wonder if I might have designed a more conservative one for myself. I am a very "girly girl" who loves pink, etc., so mine has hot pink tubing and a green head covered with colorful flowers. It's beautiful to me but I wonder if it might be a mistake for a new grad who hopes to be taken seriously by my colleagues and trusted by my patients.
I'll be an older new nurse but don't want to look silly. Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
