welcome to nursing!

I tried this in the student forum, and got no answers: hopefully you all moved here after graduating!

So, I teach first semester students, couple of classes. Started several years ago, and now a fair number of "my" students have graduated and passed NCLEX (yea:yelclap:), and are now my colleagues and coworkers. A few in my own dept., and more on the floors.

How many of you work with either former students or former instructors? How is it going? Have to say I enjoy being with mine, but still tend to lapse into questioning :lol2: , or asking "have you seen this done? want in on it?" One has kindly said I'll always be her teacher, and she appreciates having me available :redpinkhe

    I, too, work with former students. They know that I support them and soon we are real colleagues.

    I work with my former NS preceptor, though we're on opposite shifts. I really owe her a lot and I've told her that. Not only was she a great preceptor, but I love my job and my unit and I know it was her recommendation that got me the job.

    I worked with one of my instructors before nursing school. She was great to work with and she was the nicest instructor you could have. Her class was my favorite and it was actually the one class that was effortless for me.

    We still work together from time to time and I do hold her in a different regard than the other nurses. It's just different. I think there will always be that wee bit of extra respect for her and I really don't want her to be putting her head in her hands in regret that she ever passed me!

    She is a stellar human being.

    i sincerely think is an obligation of any ns to express their gratitude to their preceptor or instructor, if their experience was a positive one. i for one after graduating from my nursing program ended working side by side with my preceptor, and as years went by she was trilled to witness my success as i climb up the ladder in management. having said that, i'm a firm believer that most of the time our preceptors get the complaints of their efforts in guiding a future nurse. furthermore, only once in awhile we get the acclamation of a great job done. granted, not that we are looking for it in order to feel accomplished. however, it's good to know that we had contribute in a positive way on someone's future.
