At wit's end

Hey, I am so disappointed with myself; I was dismissed from Nursing school for not Identifying and taking accurate vital signs during Sims lab on 2 occasions. I did take vital signs accurately on several occasions with a nursing instructor. Yet this was not good enough I am assuming, I really do understand the consequences that could occur by not identifying a patient before giving and injection or meds. However, I knew who my patient was I had establish this during are first look assessment. We were told to ask the patient name and date of birth each time you enter the room. However, I forgot to ask on 2 occasion during are Sims lab. I believe, due to the fact that it was a fellow Nursing student that we were practicing with during are labs made me felt as if I did not have to ask them there name each and every time. Nevertheless, here I am out the door. To this day, I do not know why I was made to repeat task on my core competencies for simulation clinical that I was already check off on, I am so depressed.
