Talk me down from the ledge!

I'm getting really scared.

CPNE, second time, 8/1, Albany.

:urgycld:

[SuesquatchRN, BSN, RN]

Passed 3 out of 4 labs. Failed IVPB for discarding an unused flush in the garbage instead of the sharps container. Blank me runnin'.

At least I did the entire thing correctly.

Regroup and nail that IV push tomorrow!!!! Positive thoughts only. You can do this.:heartbeat

You can do it!

My husband just asked, "What is that? I keep hearing it on your computer"

Made him laugh, too!

I'll be okay. I just have to calm down about fialing a lab and failing the whole thing.

Now off to write a care plan.

in the real world you would get wrote up for that mess since facilities pay for bio-hazard trash by the pound....or at least at every facility i have ever worked at...

Tell me about it. But because a needle could be attached to it it's a sharp.

That's okay. I won't make THAT mistake twice!

You can do it.Good luck.

Well, I passed the first PCS. Biggest whiny butt PITA I've ever had. But my care was fine, my care planning and documentation were fine, and I passed.

Then I got a heart-breaker of a baby who has spent most of his short life in the hospital. Touched my heart. My CE was SO wonderful. Really wonderful.

I can't say much about my patients because everyone knows where I'm testing and that pesky HIPAA thing.

Passed IVPB.

(do you know how many Xanax I took today....)

I'm fried.

Thanks, everyone. You have no idea how much you all mean to me. Or maybe you do.

:)

One more adult and I'm done.

Yay!!!! You keep it up, Sue! We're rooting for you!
