i just finished up my psych rotation and will officially graduate in 3 quarters! i'm too darn excited for my own good.
i had my evaluation for my psych rotation from 2 different instructors. one of which was the acute care unit (4 long days) and the other was one day in a long term facility for psychiatric patients.
the acute care evaulation was great. no problems that i needed to work on. for the long-term facility, the instructor said "dani was too loud." :selfbonk:
guys, i am so embarrassed and ashamed. when thinking back to that rotation, i think i was probably too loud; we were told that we had to make the most of the clinical to gain something from it. the "clients" and i were playing cards-- having a good time. maybe too good of a time! after consulting with a few of my friends, they told me it was just part of my personality. my husband said that he's just used to it.
have you guys ever had to deal with this? i know it could have been worse, but i feel like such a loud loser now. i now know i need to change my behavior-- but it is part of my personality. i like being able to go into a clients room and make them smile.
ah well. it's something i can work on. but i kind-of liked being the person who i am.
