Clinicals

Published

I have a question regarding protocols when it comes to the arrangements made for clinicals. I am in a program where clinicals are supposed to be on 1 set day of the week, but in this rotation that day of the week was changed without prior notice. I work two jobs and most of my hours are worked on the weekends due to me being a student. My employer is aware of me being in school an allows me the regular day of the week off to accommodate my school schedule. With this new change in date and the time frame I was notified in I am not able to change my work schedule an of course if I don't attend clinical I will be kicked out of the program. Is the school wrong for not giving me notice within the proper time frame to accommodate the change or is this short notice typical ?

It must be I'm just goin to get threw this best I can I have come this far it's no way I'm not finishing.

My school changed things daily! We were told school had to be first priority! If this is your last clinical then you have to attend if you are serious about finishing school and being a nurse! A big part of nursing is being flexible, so it's probably good if you start now. We weren't even allowed to have jobs during school. Remember school comes first!
