Hey guys,
I really feel like nursing should not be for me since I am a failure and a forgetful person. SO I DID A REALLY BIG NO-NO! I think I left my patient records still up. What happened was, I went to a computer to fill out paperwork on my patient for my nursing class. I swore I clicked on LOG OUT. This hallway computer keyboard unfolds, will turn on and off when it is unfolded from the wall. Anyways, when I came back from lunch, the computer was folded so the computer was turned off. However, when I logged back on, I see that a ConnectCare tab (our patient record database), is minimized. It turned out to be my patient's and was logged in under my name!! I quickly logged out of it and did not say a word. During the rest of the clinical, my nurse or nursing instructor did not inform me of anything pertaining to the patient record. However, I am terrified of what is going to happen. I feel like I always screw up somehow in clinical, and this one is very serious. I need some opinions.
