Hi Tina I remember how it feels, i started my grad year just recently and you still get nervous. I think it goes in teaching hospitals students are just allocated to wards and it is accepted by the nursing staff that that is part of there role to teach, and share knowlege. And although you often feel 'in the way' or like you are slowing them down, it goes hand in hand with nursing, and dont forget one day that will be you preceptoring a student. I only found the rare nurse who didnt appreciate having a student, and in those cases i just mentioned it my clinical educator and made sure i was partnered up with those nurses who wanted to teach. And i would brush up on Antibiotics also, and just the regular meds: analgesics (DD's), you sound keen im sure youll love it!
