Have you ever felt like a moron? (in clinical or in class)
This is my first post thus new to this site and forum.
It would be nice if we could share the times where we felt about ½ inch tall. Although we nursing students are intelligent, there are times when we have... um... brain flatulence.
Last night was my first clinical of the summer semester. My clinical instructor said, "follow you RN around every where". We had five patient to care for during the night. My RN asked me to d/c a foley then report back to the nursing station to find her. Well, I did... I saw her and followed her, as instructed .... STRAIGHT INTO THE BATHROOM...I looked around to make sure my clinical instructor was not watching me... and of course she was! my clinical instructor was nearly on the floor laughing at me so bad that she nearly urinated on herself. She said, "I did not mean follow her EVERY where.". Every time I would pass by her, she would start to laugh.

I have no idea how I am going to face my instructor or the nurse next week.
