How much orientation??

Published

I'm new to school nursing (just completed my first week), and I'm wondering what the usual orientation time is. I guess it could vary but I'm not sure 2 days with a sub who doesn't usually take care of any of the paperwork is enough. :( How much orientation did you get?

Two days. I was told I could have more but lets be honest, it wasn't needed. I have a ton of nurses to call with questions plus my boss. If I run across something new I always have someone to call or email.

Specializes in Peds, Neuro, Orthopedics.
. No hand holding or micro managing like in the hospital. At least that was my experience.

Lucky you. I'm about to book an appointment with a proctologist to remove this principal from up my butt. :up:
