Okay, I have to let you guys know, since I complained so much my first couple of clinical days, that today was AWESOME!! I got to really talk with my patient and his wife and do a lot of assessment stuff, and help with other patients as well, and keep my patient comfortable. I really felt connected to him as another human being and felt I was making a positive difference to his day and giving his wife a break from a lot of his personal care. It was such an incredible experience, made me remember why I want to be a nurse when after the previous clinical day I had wondered why I ever got myself into it!! I just wanted to share and thank all of you for your support these days!!
