Is it normal to or get sick a lot in your first year of nursing? I've been sick 3 times in 5 months (more than in the last 5 years), and now I'm really stressed that I could be written up or fired. My work always says not to come in if you're sick but I've worked in healthcare long enough to know they usually don't mean it, at least pre-Covid.
