I will resign. Inpatient neurology and I was expected to handle 6 patients immediately. I made no errors, had no complaints, but I constantly have to stay hours late catching up on charting because I never seem to have time during my shift. I am definitely slower than I'd like, but I will only get better in time (if I can find another job). What type of nursing should I look into now and how should I explain my recent failure to future employers?

Any other takers?

They gave me one extra week for the personal reasons I had going on, but not enough improvement. They denied my request for transfer to a less acute unit because "it is against policy". I am looking for a new job now, but am uncertain what to look for. I am very thorough, but slower than I'd like. What type of work should I look I to and how should I explain my recent failure to future employers?

Hello all, All advice and perspectives are welcome and appreciated. I am fresh out of nursing school and just completed my "New Grad Residency Program" internship, however I am being provided the option to resign due to "time management" (I constantly need overtime to complete all of my tasks). What should I do? Thank you in advance.
