I once read a thread that was all about horror stories that student nurses had from clinical experiences. They described mistakes that they had made that could have seriously hurt or even killed pt's and they wrote about little mistakes they had done and the things they did to resolve the issue. They told about how they were afraid but went to the instructor and told them what they did and they told of the consequences to them and to the pt's. I can not find that thread anymore so I thought I would start a new one. I learn from reading these stories. I start cliniclas in the fall and I want to learn about things done by students good or bad so that we can all learn from them. Who knows, maybe this fall I will have some stories of my own to tell...
