I gave a heparin injection sub Q to my patient during clinical last week. My instructor said I did it wrong because I showed go "really slow". I wasn't going really fast but just how you administer any subQ injection. What's the reason for going "slow" with a heparin subQ injection?
PS: A big reason to my stress/anxiety is my clinical instructor. She's a smart one but definitely the b*tchy teacher who lives "by the books" and uses negative reinforcement (and not constructive criticism). Constantly on egg shells with this instructor and believe me, I'm definitely adjusting MYSELF to fit to her needs so I can pass this damn class. *sigh*
