I am 6 weeks in. I am with a preceptor on days 7a-7p. I get very anxious when I do not know how to complete certain tasks such as wound changes, what bandages to use, heparin drips, blood infusions.. my biggest concern is that I'll get so behind and all my medications will be like 2 hours over due and then I'll get fired or something. I just feel overwhelmed with all the medication that has to be given and then when patients ask for extra stuff it just piles on top of everything. I swear if I knew how to do everything that was expected of me I would feel so much better because I would be able to manage my time a lot better and not feel like I'm getting behind. Very overwhelming job holy ****. somebody should make it mandatory to tell new nurses this. I need support, I start by myself on nights in 6 days and am scared, like I might just walk off the floor and quit scared cause I want to give up. I can't believe that I'm having all these feelings. UGhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
