Friday during clinicals I getting ready to administer a nicotine patch to one of my patients. I checked the MAR against Pixus, against the medication, checked my patients arm band, checked the MAR against the medication for correct dosage and everything. BUT I forgot to let my instructor check the medication I was giving. She caught me before I applied the patch, checked the med and let me apply the patch She really got upset and told me I would get a Unsatisfactory on my clinical evaluation because I didn't let her check the medication before hand and how I endangered the patient and that I need to get it together. So I've have been feeling soo bad and guilty, I actually feel like quitting even though my grades are great. I have a test Monday but haven't studied much cause I can't get over the guilt. I don't want to even go to clinical next week, even though I only have a half a day left to do. I'm thinking may be I should do something else besides nursing.
