Uhh yeah. Welcome to clinicals. Sorry to say, but I am about to graduate and I have never felt like I really knew what was going on at Clinicals, it's just kind of a feeling you get used too. A feeling of being lost and it stinks! But I must addmit it will get easier and that feeling will start to feel normal. The nurses I must say aren't always the friendliest and that can make the day even more difficult and frustrating. But then, I must say, you run into those nurses who are just wonderful and accepting to students. They are willing to show you things, get you new experiences and teach you new things. At the end it helps you to decide what kind of nurse you want to be. It's too bad that more nurses aren't accepting, because, as we know.. they were there once too! But good luck and hang in there! It will get easier and you will start feeling more like a nurse everyday. As for clinical instructors, I have also had some wonderful instructors and they have helped to shape me into the nurse I am today. As for the others, again, just hang in there. Sometimes I feel like nursing school is just too see how far you can be pushed!
