Don't you just love all the necessary information you don't get in report!!

[COLOR=#000000]How true! It is all about learning from our mistakes and going forward. The only time I have ever given anyone a written counseling is when they blatantly chose not follow protocol and actual harm came to the resident. [/COLOR]

Great advice from everyone. Except for Pranqster. The days of eating our young has got to stop. Alimamethaa did say she was a new RN and in orientation. Nursing school does not teach students critical thinking skills. Those "in the moment" disastrous situations are what we can choose to learn from to gain confidence and expertise. And I will also add that she took personal accountability for what she did or didn't do and is reaching out for our help. If she didn't care she would have never posted the topic. She is taking the first steps of being a really good nurse. Congratulations Alimamethaa on passing your boards and starting your new adventure!
