    Sherijo71 posted a topic in General Students

    Hey guys, I'm just wondering about your clinical experience in terms of gaining real-world experience with skills such as IV insertion, foley's, etc... The trend seems to be that certain people get...

    Oh my gosh, I know! Before getting accepted into this RN program, I worked charge on inpatient psych units for close to 20 years and had my share of RN students over the years. Felt so bad for them...

    Actually, I have no idea how I am in IV's.... I've only done about 5 of them, on fake arms, and those fake arms were the perfect arms with the perfect veins. I do take every possible opportunity to...

    I'm so glad that HarleyGrandma wrote that; I wasn't looking at the situation quite like that but she's right and now I have a different perspective to consider. So grateful!! Thank

    Thank you for your reply. Everything you shared really hit home because my clinical instructor asked me if I am in the hallway and available in case there is an IV or a procedure and I told her no, I...

    Sherijo71 replied to Sherijo71's topic in General Students

    Actually, that's worth a lot so thank you for sharing. I'm stressing out, obviously, and fearful that I won't have the skills that I think I need to be employable and a great RN in a year from now...

    That's an interesting way of looking at it OcMurse93. I don't disagree and feel like I have done just that. Most definitely have spoken to my clinical instructor and do make myself available as to...

    Sherijo71 replied to Sherijo71's topic in General Students

    Yeah, I'm not sure there's any favoritism at this point; I'm thinking not. In fact, prior to getting accepted to this school, when I was working as a Psych Tech, I had 4th semester students rotate...
