I started in the ER as a new Grad and felt lost, I have a new job now and feel lost. I didnt last long in the ER partly due to some differences in personalities as well as some other personal stuff. The first thing I would do and should have done is go to my supervisor and let them know how you feel. I think everything will come with time, as far as looking for something not as fast paced, I am now doing something not as fast paced and still feel like im lost. On day ten you should be still watching anyways. Just watch what they do and make mental notes. It sucks not being taught and being in such a high stress situation. I felt like I was expected to know everything, and when I made a mistake or didnt know something I was made to feel stupid or like I didnt belong there. It's a tough place to start but in any place its going to be hard at first. Ive been at my new place about 2 months, and Im still scared.
