Failed Medication Checkoff Try#3

After struggling to get into nursing school (6 years, co-reqs plus pre-reqs while working) I finally suceeded! I started this fall and learned quickly how much more difficult it was than I could ever realize until I actually got it and started. I have been working/studying hard but unfortune hit and at the much needed recheck on medications (3rd try) I failed. (combination nerves and for whatever reason completely forgetting to give my "patient" PO meds--I even prepped my drug cards and grabbed the darn cup for water!)This means I am out for the semester. I did the exit interview and withdrawal, all on the same day as failing, as well as doing the request to re-enroll next semester, Spring. My intructors told me that means I will graduate December instead of June 2014, so that isn't too terrible. My close friends and family are being amazing and really supportive. I am trying to figure out what to say, if anything to people at work. I am keeping my hours the same as is, planning on practicing checkoffs, finishing my huge drug list for next semester (will need it anyway!) and chugging along as I have always done. I am just stuck on what to say at work...suggestions? Thank y'all!

You don't have to tell anyone, anything that you are not comfortable with. If you want to keep the situation to yourself, then do so. If your job is paying for school, you do have that obligation to tell them. But sometimes it, is best to keep things to your self.
