    Top Skills Every ER Nurse Should Possess

    I agree with everyone before me. I would like to add something though. Know the laws and SOPs of your hospital. You'll find yourself in some strange situations in the ER. It will guide you as to what...

    Good for you for facing your fears! I never liked pediatric patients and did my best to expose myself as much as possible until I felt comfortable with them. You are doing yourself and your future...

    Clinicals

    I agree. You stated that you were ignored. Like elkpark asked, did you tell your instructor? I have had students in the ER. The ones that were visible, introduced themselves and took an active part in...
