Overload

…And I thought they overloaded me with stuff the first day!
Yesterday, I left work with my new nursing bag, a giant backpack to transfer all the nursing stuff into, a large rubbermaid trunk box full of supplies, the laptop, and my personal things: lunchbag, purse, coat. I managed to get it all to the car in one load…barely.
I’ve been in McKesson training (electronic charting) for the past two days, and that’s overwhelming on it’s own. Tomorrow I see my first patients with my preceptor-yikes! Unfortunately, I have no idea who we’re seeing, so I can’t do any reading about the patients ahead of time. I’m nervous about it, but hoping it will go well. Wish me luck!
