Placements nursing
Bro I’m actually so over placement 😭 I had this one preceptor who made me feel so stupid every time I asked a question. Like I’m literally a student nurse… am I not SUPPOSED to ask questions?? One minute it was “you should ask questions so you learn” and then the second I did ask something she’d talk to me like I was dumb for not already knowing it. There was this time I asked for help finding dressings/restock stuff and she was like “does it LOOK like the bandages are here?” in the rudest tone ever 😭 but then later she literally called to follow up on the restock anyway like ??? what was the attitude for??
What made it worse is apparently other students noticed too and were saying she sounded rude and undermining towards me. I ended up crying over it because every interaction felt like a setup. If I asked questions I got judged, if I stayed quiet it became “why aren’t you asking questions?” Like pick one 😭 And she kept saying stuff like “it’s your 4th week, how do you not know this?” when it was literally my first time doing some of those things. Am I supposed to just spawn knowledge out of nowhere 💀 I genuinely tried reporting her to my CLN and couldnt even spewak cause i was so overwhelmed nd upset that I’d open my mouth to explain myself and physically couldn’t speak properly anymore. And the annoying part is when it was brought up later as "feedback" from the CLN she suddenly switched personalities and acted super nice so I felt like nobody fully understood what I meant. Placement is actually draining sometimes.
