Got fired.. Need support

[uniqueguy34]

It was my first nursing acute care hospital critically Ill patients. I got fired yestarday.. It feels terrible a big hit to my already lack of confidence in nursing.. So after my 2 months orientation.. My second week on my own. A patient was admitted on a critical drip. Later 4 hrs after admission they couldn't find the drip.. That the patient needed to survive. Took them 3 hrs to make up their mind.. Finally they decided to discharge the patient.. At this time I was working on admission process, paper work etc.. I finished half of it.. Still I had to do the assessment in the computer. Since the patient is being discharged. I thought that I didn't have to do it.. It was already late.. I was in the patient room comforting the patient and his wife who was crying.. Then after the ambulance came.. I went home.. I didn't complete the rest of the admission process.. It was almost 10 pm. I worked since 7 am that day. Yesterday I get a phone call from assistant manager. I explained to her the situation.. Then half hr later the hr call me.. They said this was my last warning. Btw i never had any warning.. And she said I'm terminated.. I've been down.. Stressed. Thinking about it.. I wanted to put that position on my resume.. Btw this hospital lacks good management.. Bad review.. High ratios of patients.. Unsafe.. I never felt that I was providing good care.. I was working like a robot.. I was careful to not make med errors... Should I put this on my resume.. Working for 3 months? I don't know if hospitals would hire me.. I have 2 side jobs, school nursing and Homecare.. .. Please give me your input.. My confidence is shot.. I wish they had offered me to resign.. I really appreciate ur help and support.
