I didn't realize that I hadn't updated my blog in awhile. So I apologize for being so behind. Well I wish there was something to update but really nothing has been going on that is worth writing about.
We are quite busy these days and it is about to get busier. Clinical starts on Monday.....the dreaded clinical...I am not so impressed with where I am placed this term only because I am an employee at the unit I am doing my clinical placement on. We are in acute care at the hospital and I am on the orthopedic surgical floor, so it should be a very challenging and informative placement. I look forward to it.....terrified at the same time.
Another exciting thing is that we get to do a week long psychiatry placement as well. We don't get to be in the psychiatry unit at the hospital though, instead we are at a long term care facility (it is a hospital) but it is mostly geriatric psychiatry. I wish we could do our rotation in the hospital but with the amount of nursing students they are churning through both the PN and RN programs, we do not get placements there.
Today as well I went with my friend to get our Student badges, the health region requires that we as students wear the badges that they give us and not the ones that we could just get at the school. I was so worried about my picture that I made the poor guy in the photo ID place take my picture more than once to ensure that the picture was good...anyone who has seen my school student ID might know why I was so insistant on the picture looking good.
But anyways with papers to write, I should close for now.
So all I have to say is let the games begin and hopefully I do not get too stressed out.
