I know I want to help people. I know I want to care for people. I want them to have a better medical experience from before. I want them to feel heard and understood. Yet sometimes I wonder if the nursing role is for me. I have been able to spend time in OB- and hope to end up working here. I know it is very difficult for a new nurse to be hired onto an OB department. Does anyone else get second thoughts about school? Or worried they might not like being a nurse? What do you do to remind yourself to stick with it?

Depending on where you work as a nurse you may see the same patients frequently. Either admitted in the hospital, ER, or in a clinical. As a nurse you want to advocate for your patient. Educate them on what is best for their health and provide them resources to improve. What do when you get a patient who doesn't take advice, doesn't stick to medication directions, and refuses to make changes? How can you motivate your patients?
