am i really for nursing?
hi all, i am a 3rd sem practical nursing student. i am aware that i am good when i am in class but not in clinical. i can write essays,write tests,present, etc. but during clinical, i feel uncomfortable. i do not know what to do. if for example during the written test, there will be a scenario given, i could think all the possible intervention but when i got to clinical, im so dumb. when i asked one of my colleages on how was their pt going, she said that oh i reposition my pt, i changed her dressing, i did my assessment(neuro assessment).. when i also asked my other colleage, he said oh i bathe her by myself. and when i asked myself, what did i do with my pt? nothing, just vitals and meds(if im allowed to give). when my instructor asked me what assessment did u do to your pt, i said just VS and i auscultate the pt's chest and stomach. (and i dont even know if this assessment is appropriate with the client's condition). i just did that because i want to say something to my instructor. my primary nurse commanded me that i have to reposition the pt every2hr and drain the catheter. i felt so stupid. like, they always say u should read the pt care summary(comp.chart). i always do that but the thing is, i dont know where to find the task that i should do with the pt. i can see myself that i have no leadership skills and cant work independently.sometimes im thinking of dropping the program. (crying hard last night) anyone?please help me. please please please :'(

working while in nursing school
being a nursing student is a very tough job. i could say that if u can handle and have excellent time management skills, then yes keep your job. it will give you money to support your needs during school especially when purchasing books and stuff. but if your job is affecting your grades(like below the passing grades) then obviously you have to quit your job. :)
