In lecture I supose we're learning whatever it is you're supposed to learn in peds, and that's alright, but my clinicals are a complete joke. Here's what we're doing now... Going to a local church nursery where there are generally healthy kids, and watching them, observing growth and development among certain age groups... aka babysitting... Yeah, it's growth and development. I could get this stuff from a book. Sure it's fun playing with these kids, and watching (got to watch toddlers.. ) but for the sake of doing this in a nursing program? I wanted to be doing REAL peds nursing stuff.
And for the record, throughout all of peds we'll never get to do hands-on stuff. So no use in asking if this is just a beginning phase.
I guess it's good because it'll be an easy A, but I'd rather have gotten a B in a tougher class where I learned more.. Seriously... Well, maybe not a B, but you know what I mean!
