Snowybee I'm very sorry about how feel and I hope it gets better for you. I still feel the same way. All the senior nurses are really great on here with their advice and encouragement.. I thank you all again. I have personally resigned from LTC and am now looking for a home health position or Doctors office. I feel for me it will be more rewarding to care for my patients one on one. I love my career and looking forward to what the future will bring.

Thanks everyone, it helps to know that others have experienced what Im feeling. Also thanks for the words of encouragement I really needed it. Im definitely in this profession for all the right reason and nothing is going to stop me from making an impact in peoples lives.

I'm a new LPN and after only 2 days in LTC, I feel as though I made the wrong decision to become a nurse. I love the residents.. that's why I went in to nursing to make a difference in peoples lives. Unfortunately you don't have the time to do anything other than paperwork and passing meds. I just wish I did not feel this way. Has anyone ever felt like this? If so how did you overcome this?
