:bluecry1: today was my 3rd day of what i thought was orientation. the facility that i work at has 4 wings and the side they put me on today is pretty heavy. i found that out also today. the med pass is brutal. i didn't and still don't feel like 2 days on each unit is enough. i did fine on the first unit. no problems, buttttttttttttt, i keep telling them that i just passed my boards a few weeks ago, and med pass in school is totally different from the real world version. i am hearing two different versions of how long orientation is. i was told 6 wks and then i heard two weeks:uhoh3: there is no way on this planet that i am going to be ready in two weeks!!!!! well anyways, the side i was on today and expected to pass all of the a.m. meds on has 32 patients, i kept saying i don't feel too comfortable, and i don't know these patients, i feel like i am falling behind. the supervisor said i was doing fine (which was a total lie, that is what my gut was telling me).one of the patient's i passed meds on had to have at least 17 different things!!!! that alone only took me forever and a day. the med error happened about half way through, when my preceptor was showing me how to go faster. that person knows the patients and was pulling out of order and doing not only my patient, but the one she decided she was going to do. well low and behold, i gave her meds to my patient. :angryfire :crying2: :crying2: . i feel like crap right now, i am upset with the way my orientation is going, and i have only been there for 3 days. i am ready to just say forget it and leave. i didn't give anything that would cause "real harm" is what i was told. now i am going to be up allllll night. but stilll, it's a med error!!!! after giving it, i told my preceptor that i was not touching anything else. i don't understand why they would want to start me out on a full med pass on a side where the meds are so heavy. please any advice from experience would be helpful. oh btw, half of the patients for what ever reason don't have name bands and there was no pic to identify the patient. i did ask which bed.
