   I say PA because it is within the health care field, but it is not involved with direct patient care (e.g., wiping @$$ while raising beds). And I do have more than a half a brain somewhere. But now...

   I simply did not think before leaving the room. I simply did not think before answering the patients friend when he asked how he was doing because I figured that I wasn't giving medical information...

   I felt horrible about ever mistake I made and NEVER made them again. It was often a busy day and it is very easy to get caught up in the moment and "forget gloves" or forget to put the bed down. It...

    I totally agree with you bruce. Anything could happen in a given day. You could die at any second especially in the hospital. As a student I tried my best to be aware of everything. And since I...

    I'm at a loss for words. Yesterday I left a patients bed up to go grab some wipes. My instructor walked in and saw that the bed was in the high position while I was gone. This was what got me kicked...

    I'm officially a senior nursing student! I just finished my maternity, pediatric and geriatric rotations. My geriatric instructor was what everyone warns about with nursing instructors, we had to know...
