To me as an RN the greatest value in labs is as a teacher of organinization and process. When working as a nurse there are many skills that are best performed in an organized manner with attention to detail in the process, such as inserting a foley cath with meticulous attention to detail to minimize risk of introducing infection. Also many of the little details which are logical to the point of what should be common sense, but commonly are not, such as when pouring from a vessel, pour from the non-labelled side. Two small examples of many valuable lessons. Get what you can from all learning experiences.
