Hey everyone. I'm having some issues on my labor and delivery orientation. I'm really stressed out due to a number of things. 1. I'm constantly switching preceptors and they all do everything differently, it's throwing me off and making me forget things. 2. I feel really awkward during deliveries and in the or because I'm unsure where to step in due to the amount of people in the room. There are so many things to be done that I start blanking and forgetting basic stuff. My main preceptor is really unhelpful as she doesn't explain why she's doing a certain intervention, doesn't explain why she's calling the doc etc. She doesn't orient me to the patient. She just doesn't teach, she thinks because I saw her do something one time I'm going to know it. I have told her I have to see a few then do a few skills. She said I'm too slow when giving meds. Im terrified of making a mistake that I triple check meds on everything. I triple check lines and pumps. I don't care, I want to be sure the pt is safe. I feel so overwhelmed and met with lack of support. The unit is so cliquey that they don't offer me help, only their friends. My anxiety is through the roof and I'm getting depressed and starting to hate life even on my days off. Can anyone offer advice? I'm about to lose it

Is anybody else having trouble getting into the my student center on the uthscsa website?

Me too!!

I really hope we hear something today

Has anybody heard anything yet?

I know I was so scared it was a rejection ?

Yeah the bus route question was totally weird ??

Does anybody know how many interviews they send out each year?

Yayyy!! I’m gonna practice before I take it. I get so nervous with interviews

Yeah I took it at utsa and I hope so too I’m so scared ??

I didn’t take the psi version and I saw on their instructions we were supposed to. Then I called and said it was fine as long as it was in person
