I`m in 3rd year now and I love it! But I really hated 2nd year. You`re going to have placements that you hate and ones that you love. I thought about quitting last year but now I`m happy I didn`t. Last year I had to make lots of beds and do showers, etc. but this year I feel more like a nurse. My advice would be to stick it out because you might find something you love! There are so many different areas in nursing

Hello! I have to write a paper where I analyze an ethical dilemma. I have to list all the possible actions the student nurse can take in the situation. I also have to list the pros and cons of each possible action. Here is the scenario: You are a nursing student completing a clinical placement. You need assistance with a two-person transfer. An RN offers to help. As you are transferring the patient, the RN comments, "This man is so fat. He should really go on a diet." She makes many remarks right in front of the patient, who is oriented and aware. The patient looks upset but does not say anything. So what should the student nurse do? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi, I am a third year nursing student working on an adult medical floor. During my shift, I needed help transferring a patient from bed to wheelchair. It was a two-person transfer and one of the RNs offered to help. While we were transferring the patient, the RN made rude comments about the patient`s size and excessive weight. The patient was oriented but didn`t say anything. The patient looked upset. I didn`t do anything about the situation but I don`t feel it was right. How should I handle this situation... Thanks!
