Three weeks ago I 'graduated' from Iowa Central Community College with my associates degree in nursing. I saw 'graduated' because I still have 3 weeks of class and clinicals left. My coursework in nursing is complete, however, this last 6-week class consists of learning how to lead a group of nurses, studying for the boards, making a resume & portfolio, studying for the boards, and studying for the boards! We were able to chose where we would like to complete our last 120 hrs of clinical and I chose......the ER. I chose the ER out of pure FEAR! I always declined going to the ER when given the chance. I was/am afraid of the unknown, the pressure, and the extremely fast pace. However, now that I have complete 2 weeks in the ER, it's not so bad. I have learned A LOT! Which is exactly why I chose to do my last rotation in the ER.
