New Experiences

Last week in clinical, I was the "medication nurse,� so my job was to give the medications for the patients that students had. While that may sound like a very easy job, I was expected to look up EVERY medication that I was giving and be able to explain to the patient what the medication was for. I had over 50 medications to do. It took me almost the entire clinical day. As soon as I finished the 0800 and 0900 meds, I had to start the lunch time meds. I was able to give 3 injections, which was exciting!! I was also able to insert a foley on a patient, the hardest patient possible, but it went really well!

Last week, we also had the cardiac test *insert scary music here.* Let's just say it was not pretty, and that is all I want to say about that.
My little brother's senior night for basketball was last week too! He is growing up so fast! His team is at the state tournament this weekend. I'm excited for them!! *Good luck Panthers!!!* It was nice to see people from high school, I miss it so much!!

And.... the snow is finally melting!!!
until next time =)
