As a new Nurse I have been dealing with it. When I was a student it was fine because the instructors were there to help.
I arrive to work early. I sit in my car in the parking lot thinking about the shift and not knowing whats going to happen. I sometimes think management is going to find something about me or make a case where they can blame me for xyz. I have seen that happen many times over the past year.
Do you get anxiety prior to shift? Is it this bad? What can I do?
