I'm confused. Do you want us to call your supervisor or something?

no, i think the OP just needed to vent haha...Med/Surg is tough, but doable. Just tell yourself its just 1 day. :D You can do it!

Pee on the floor ... they won't ask you to come back. :D

Bring a nursing "brain sheet", where you can organize all your tasks and pt. info. I'm sure you'll do fine :)

Lol, thanks for the humor Lunah! I needed the laugh.

Ask the nurses there if you can borrow one of their brain sheets... theirs is probably set up to work with the flow of the unit already.

I just thought it funny how when I "dreaded" a certain area- it usually went smooth! All the really nail-biting, and clocking out totally numb and frazzled came unexpectedly when I thought, "Heck yeah I'll go work _____________."

It's called karma. You sent your ducklings there to be eaten by the big bad beast it's only fair it nibbles on you a bit too ^^. You'll probably do fine just relax and look very sweet that usually helps :)
