I am so excited to have another friend on the floor :) I wanted to poop my pants the first three months coming to work each day but now I'm a lot more comfortable haha. Having a preceptor is awesome. The scariest is your first day without them lol. I know you'll do fine! Yes I would get scissors. I don't use them too often but they're definitely nice to have for dressing changes. You'll do a lot of chest tube dressing changes if you're on day shift. I have a penlight and barely use it, but it is nice to have bc we do get stroke alerts sometimes since a lot of our patients are a fib and throw clots. I have a binder! I would get that or a clipboard. I have a ton of papers I can copy for you that are like cheat sheets lol. Let me know who your preceptor is when you find out!

Between me and you I've "unoffically" found out I passed my boards (I'll post the announcements when it pops up on the board of nursing), so I'll be starting on your unit next week! I'll be eager to talk to you more and am excited for your advice and guidance :) I am going shopping for my scrubs and shoes tomorrow and other necessities. Do you recommend I get a binder to stay organized with during my shifts? Should I get scissors or a pen light? What do you use on the daily?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07069959506533728972noreply@blogger.com
