Clinicals- not getting hands on experience

Published

I am in my second term of a VN program at a private school. Theory is great, but the clinical assignment I am assigned to really stinks. It is because certain paperwork was supposed to be turned into the site was not turned in a timely manner before we could get computer training. The instructor is doing what see can to try and make the best of it for the group. Problem is we are sick and tired of sitting in a conference room doing assignments and shadowing CNA's only.

The clinical coordinator does not seem to care about the problem and has a bad attitude and tells us this is not of our concern. The group is talking about walking out if this happens next week to get the school's attention, although we know we have to make up the hours. Any advice or thoughts on the matter?- Thanks
