newbie3

So I am about to take my first travel assignment in florida as an ICU nurse and I am a little unsure on the housing. I am thinking of taking the stipend and there are several availabilities in the area. If you use airbnb or something similar should I reserve the whole 13 weeks up front or just a month at a time? Sorry if this is a stupid question. Thanks

I am in my last semester of school and I have clinicals in ICU. Well my preceptor had me change the inner cannula on a trache. The patient had the trache for years (metal type) and they changed it to a plastic one a few days before. I was wearing clean gloves and was told not to touch the part that goes in. Well even though I knew not to touch it I somehow managed to while trying to insert it. I didnt even realize I did it until I put it in and thought about it. My preceptor never said a thing, but I feel like a complete idiot. My preceptor is really cool but I was hoping for a recommendation from him and I feel like I blew it. Any advice or words or wisdom would be appreciated.
