Graduated 2014, Passed NCLEX 2020,

[katrn, BSN, RN]

Graduated 2014 and for personal reasons I didn’t take the NCLEX right away. And didn’t have a medical related job. I took the nlcex this year and passed. Now I work in a small hospital. I got hired on the spot and during the interview I was assured that I will get the training that I need. But I am not getting the training that I need and I feel so unsafe and unsure about myself. I feel so defeated every time I’m at work. I do work with some nurses who are willing to teach but it’s not like that all the time. I am passionate about this and I want to be a safe nurse. I understand that there’s a pandemic and we don’t have the staff to train. I’ve already looked at residency programs. I’ve found some that will train nurses without experience. But getting in a residency program is not sure because it’s so competitive. And will mostly likely hire actual new grads. I’m still going to try and apply. I’m confused and I don’t know what to do. I feel like I need an actual training with a program like a residency is the best for me.

Can you try to arrange your schedule so it matches 2 or 3 of the nurses who like to teach? What are you feeling like you’re lacking specifically?
