I have been working at my first nursing job since graduating in an ICU for 6 months now. I have officially been on my own without a preceptor for about 1 month. I am starting to realize how much I over think everything and bring work issues home with me and it is starting to become overwhelming. During my orientation, I had a lot of crazy things happen to me. For instance, someone self extubated themselves, another pulled out their IJ and another patient climbed out of bed and ended up on the floor even with me trying to stop him and holding onto him. Nothing detrimental happened to any of these patients, but I still feel so guilty about it happening. Now that I have been on my own, I am starting to realize just how much responsibility I have at my job which is why I think I am over thinking all these instances and not letting them go. I realize everyone makes mistakes and things happen, but it bothers me that I didn't prevent them and that something awful could have resulted. I've learned from what has happened and need to move on from them but am having a hard time. Anyone else experiencing this or have any advice? Will I ever be able to leave work issues at work?
