Failed check off

Published

So I had my third check off today; medication administration and I failed. I have to do recheck next week but its killing me and I'm so upset. My scenario was I gave my 0730 meds and then instructor said to give 0900 meds and well because I didn't physically leave the room my mind didn't think I left and I forgot to ID the patient. Ugh!!! Anyone else fail check offs? How'd you get through it and not beat yourself up!!

Ugh. I failed my very first return over vital signs because I misread the hash marks when I was reading blood pressure. Talk about a stupid mistake due to nerves. It happens. :-/
