lack of confidence...

So I'm roughly halfway through my LPN program and also working as a CNA. While I feel pretty confident in my skills as an aide, I feel sooooo UNconfident as a student nurse. The thought of actually becoming a nurse is suddenly starting to freak me out - there's so much responsibility that goes along with it. Will I be able to take in all the material and retain it???? Anybody else feel this way????

Specializes in Urgent Care.

Absolutely! I am in my med surg rotation, and there is so much that we haven't seen, or even learned for that matter. I just have the attitude that the more I am exposed to, the more I will retain. It will get better! :)
