Hey everyone - just feeling like I need hugs today; so I'm asking for them and sending them out to anyone else who feels like they need them. :icon_hug:
The whole new nursing role just seems to take its toll. I'm in a internship program where we "rotate" from floor to floor. I'm on the end of my second rotation now and I've had a great preceptor this round and about to change again to a new floor next week. Actually, we will be bidding on open positions in the next week or so for a permanent job. Problem is the floor I want to work on, is the floor every new grad and most of the other interns want to start on (med/surg) and there are no open positions currently there (I talked to the director) sigh..
So i'm currently looking for positions at hospitals closer to my home (where I'm at is about 1 hour away).
In any case I hate to be a whiner but is seems this new nursing thing has turned me into one. I just have felt so beat up. It's just amazing you work your A@@ off to make it through school, then you walk through fire again to pass your boards, then you get out on the floor and your faced with new trials.
It's just never ending, and I'm wondering when I find my little groove again. Everything just feels "off" in my life right now, can't seem to get into an exercise routine, can't seem to get work down pat, sigh, sorry, in any case just venting here and again asking for hugs and sending them to anyone else feeling the same thing....
