I am stressed out over my new job as an RN. I just got out of my 9 week preceptorship and have worked 2 shifts on my own since then. I feel overwhelmed most of the time and annoyed at every imperfection. I feel like I need to stick it out for a year, but I need some advice on how to organize my day. I work on a med-surge floor and float to Ortho also. Today, I was stressed out because none of the computers worked and it just slowed me down. I feel frustrated and angry that things are so disorganized. A lot more than just the computers were a problem, but that seemed to be the biggest issue. Is every hospital short staffed and disorganized? Just wondering if it is just mine...
I could use a little advice or encouragement...anything.
Wow, thank you everyone who wrote something; I appreciate your comments. I was feeling pretty down last night after a hard days work, but this morning I feel well rested and confident that I can prioritize and plan my day better than yesterday. Improving day by day is my goal.
