Yeah, it's a slow night ... so sue me!
I was thinking back to nursing school and how it was. I remember when I first gave an IV push med. Because I worked as a nursing assistant in critical care for so long before school, I remember thinking that I knew I would be a "real" nurse when I was allowed to give meds IV push. And then I did. It was a great feeling.
I also remember how it was when I was learning cardiac rhythms. I struggled so hard to follow every step and kept asking questions about interpretation. These days I don't even "see" the interpretation anymore -- it's like being able to read a book it comes so naturally.
I guess I'm saying "hang in there" to all the students. After a few years of nursing you'll look back and smile at how new it all was.
