FuckTwizzle!
So, I have been fond of saying lately that my day of work ends with me saying one of two things:
1) I'm a fucking rockstar!
or
2) I fucking suck at this!
I have been blessed to be able to orient under a preceptor (this is a nurse that helps you learn the ropes) that is absolutely phenomenal at what she does. She is fast, efficient, knows her shit, her patients love her, knowledgeable about everything, not afraid to admit when she doesn't know, and thinks at 1000 miles an hour.
I have a hard time keeping up with her. I work my ass off TRYING to keep up with her. But I know exactly why I am precepting under her. For two days I have precepted under 2 other nurses. They could not keep up with me. I was running circles around them. I had my labs before them, meds ready before them, treatments done before them, and charted before them.
My preceptor pushed me to set my sights on being the best nurse I can be, and while it's not near as good as her it is far beyond what most settle for. So now I may feel like a rockstar, but my growth comes from realizing a have room to grow...and I sometimes do suck at this.
