Just returned to nursing

Hi, I just returned to nursing after being away for about 5 years. I took a job in LTC. I had my first night of floor orientation last nite and it went well. I did the med pass in good time. But I still have alot of anxiety about returning...fear making a mistake, not knowing what to do in case of an emergency, something happening that I wasn't trained on. Does anyone have any words of advice, encouragment etc? Thanks

Hey, welcome back. What you describe sounds like how I feel everyday. I am always afraid of making a mistake or not being able to think clearly in an emergent situation. I feel like the day that I think like I am the infallible, perfect nurse who is beyond making a mistake is the day I should retire. We do make mistakes and sometimes we aren't sure of what to do next. We are human. I wish you the best in your new position!
