Greetings, I am currently in my sophomore year of school and have seen many opertunities to immerse myself in healthcare settings. One of the job offers going around my program is the offer to assist in the care for a disabled individual who needs gastric feedings, medications and other procedures I am not familiar with at this time. The family states that they can teach these techniques. Our program is designed to learn these skills in our junior year classes. One thing I feel uncomfortable about is the administration of medication/especially through a G tube, something I haven't learned yet. Is this something to be concerned about, plus dispensing medications without a nursing license is frowned upon, correct? I'm sure seasoned nurses have stories like this one when they started school, and how they got to work their way up to the clinical setting.
