Well, I just finished my 1st week at my very 1st nursing job in an LTC facility....nursing skool had me fooled! No one told me my feet would HURT soooo bad!!!! I'm fine when I'm on the floor but the minute I get home and lay down, I'm in agony....no one told me how angry residents will get if u dont give them their medicine when they want it just because the other nurse does this and pre-pours their meds & give them meds early or late....What are some things that surprised you about your first time?
