We were all there once..

We were all brand-new nurses at one point and made a mistake that we thought was the end of the world and then looking back we laugh at how insignificant it was. Just wanting to start a thread of your most embarrassing/ memorable/ laughable moments as a new grad.

Mine was when I was just off of orientation, maybe a week or 2. My patient went into unstable afib RVR, called the rapid team, etc. Pt was stabilized and started on a Cardizem gtt. Our bags at the time had a little vial you had to crack the top on to mix it into the saline for your drip. Well, this was unbeknownst to me, I kept titrating my drip, nothing was happening, and I was freaking out. I went and got our charge nurse who immediately figured out the problem, titrated back down to starting dose and ole memaw's heart was happy again. I went into a full spin out; was convinced I was going to lose my license, ready to report myself to the board and burn my diploma ? No harm, no foul, the patient was perfectly fine. But guess who has NEVER EVER forgotten to pop the little cap on the cardizem bag since?
