Scary

As I freak out over the thought of doing my first 12 hour clinical shift this week, I am much more concerned with thought of doing procedures on patients that I am still inadequate in. Clinicals are a daily reminder of just how real things are going to get for me. I mean as a nurse, people lives are literally gonna be in my hands and we live in a society that loves to blame someone for what can be the inevitable. This block I have learned how to place IV's, suctioning, and trache care. It dont get no more real than that. So, am I scared??? Hell yeah!! I do very well under pressure but it doesnt bring a good feeling when you dont know what to expect. So with prayer and practice I hope to get through this.
