Intern in the ER...terrified.

So I have a few shifts in the ER next month as part of my hospital's new RN program. I am TERRIFIED. I have never had a desire to be in the ER, but I want to make the best of my shifts and not be a fraidy-cat or jerk.

So how do I get over my fear and be helpful and learn? What should I avoid saying/doing?

That is so exciting and such an awesome opportunity. You will get over your fear by being involved! I would say if you have just a couple shifts see if you can get involved in as many code situations as possible and see if you can help out with the criticals. If you don't feel comfortable right away, just observe and grab stuff for people as needed.

Just remember - right now you have a ton and a half of people backing you up. Work with confidence because you are not alone.
