I just have to complain about this!!! My clinical group as 8 students. 5 of the 8 are pretty good friends, but no one is ever excluded from learning experiences, or lunchtime groups, etc. My problem is wtih one student who is just SOOOOO mean and rude. She is not really that close with anyone, b/c she choses not to be. I have always been friendly towards her, but now she has begun to critize other peoples "skills." For instance, while anther classmate was preforming a required skill with our (very capable) instructor, she decided to chime in at least three times with the, "but I thought you were suppose to use your right hand.....I though you were not suppose to put that in the sharps box..." Meanwhile, this other student was doing their best, not endangering the patient, etc. She is a BACK-SEAT DRIVER and it's driving me crazy! NO one is every present when she does her skills, so we cant just do it back to her. Usually I'd just try to include her with a lot of conversations, etc, but I am beginning to dislike her so much that I just want her away from me. :angryfire :angryfire :angryfire How should I professionally handle this? OUr professor is very easy going and slightly stressed from having to follow around 8 students, so I don't want to bother her with this. THanks for listening to all this!
