I'm a 45 year old new nurse. I have worked in various careers since I was 16 and have never felt the need for a support group at any of the jobs I have had. I don't really feel the need for a support group in nursing either. What I feel the need for is seasoned nurses that will actually try to train rather than leaving hanging out to dry. This is the first career I've had where I feel like the veterans know I'm screwing up and are all just kinda gathered around to watch the fireworks go off when it all falls apart.
