Sorry, the conversations went on so long there's no way to remember everything. I believe that I also said they were overwhelming because I was worried about making a mistake, not because there was 1...

I am in a very accelerated nursing program, that in itself is stressful. I don't remember saying anything about it being "tough" or "overwhelming". I am the type of person that needs a little bit of...

At the clincal this week the aides were sitting playing on their phones because they had nothing to do either lol. I'd love to be able to study at clinicals, but we are not permitted to do that, on...

When I asked about going outside, she took us to the back door (where they take the trash) and told us to stick our head out the door for a minute and get some fresh

I have tried. I have gotten the same response "rules are rules" and " I don't know what to tell you, there is nothing for anyone to do". Since it is a clinical site, can they take us to another part...

I have a thick skin just from life itself. I can take constructive criticism, I would be out of the nursing program if I couldn't. That being said, I truly do not like to be talked down to. If you are...

Yep! asked a question of nursing students about how their schools handled lunch breaks. Got "trampled on" by every nurse that read it. I've been accused of abandonment, laziness, clinical...

I go nowhere without an instructor or group of classmates! That's the whole point! Like I said, I didn't ask to do brain surgery by myself, I asked to have a few moments during lunch to take a break...

Growth or reflection? I asked a question about lunch! There is nothing to reflect upon. I'm truly sorry that you don't think it's ok to be able to take a few minutes to sit by myself and decompress...

What attitude would you be speaking of? I asked a simple question about LUNCH! Everyone jumped on me like I asked a question about performing some very complicated procedure all by myself! LUNCH!...

Who's angry? I actually find it amusing that an innocent question over lunch caused this big of an uproar. Geez! You guys act like I asked if it was ok to perform surgery by

This was my whole point before everyone jumped on me. I just want the opportunity to take a few minutes at lunch (not necessarily to leave the site) for myself to regroup and relax. I love being...

Sadly we don't get a preceptorship until 2 months before we graduate. We aren't allowed into any computer system and God Forbid we go anywhere near the Pyxis. We can't pull meds, chart, administer any...
