hi,, sorry to hear about this. when i was a traveler and was assigned to m/s adultfloor i got floated to a peds/ adult overflow unit. before i got there i told them i would only take care of adult pts.... well got on the floor and the had more peds. than adult pt., wanted me to take peds. i said abosolutely not. that meant the charge rn had six peds icluding less than 1yr olds and i just had 4adults. i felt bad but stuck to my guns. told the supervisor the same. let me tell u, dose calculations and drips total didderence, med error could case a life and ur licence. if i were u i would stress getting appropriate cross train, no short cuts, real orientation to peds or start lokking for another stable unit or job. by the way... i did help that nurse out by taking vs on her peds. pt (we had no CNA). i was so unfamiliar with what vs are "normal" for peds. that was lerned in nsg school which i long since forgot.

I TEND TO FIND TRAVELING IN NYC TEND TO DUMP ON TEHIR TRAVELERS, NOT WHILE I WAS IN FL AND CALI
