Work-wow, its just so much...part of me loves it. Loves the autonomy, the patients we are helping, flip side, the lack of help, we can't really do enough. There are so many limits with medicare and medicaid adn medicare and medicaid and insurance are the stuff abt this job that I still don't really get.
When do i call who for what/??????????????
that doesn't even make sense but thats abt how I feel abt it.
The actual visits are ok, but i feel I am never doing enough, not teaching enough, not covering enough informatioin. I stay for an hour and don't cover nearly what I feel we should be covering. Its very frustrating.
There is so much teaching that can be done, needs to be done. I know I will learn to pack it in, pack more in.
Just havcen't figured it all out yet.
and the computer. I have it for the regular visit. but there are other types of visits. thoses I have never even attempted yet. and I will be on my own soon. I am not ready to be case managing yet. No were near ready. I really need Peds stuff. I have no idea how to stick a young child, baby. I don't know anything about young sick kids.
There is so much I don't know, the more I learn, the more I know i don't know and it scares the crap out of me. I want to do a good job. Be a good nurse. I know I am a good nurse. I just have so much to learn still. Its crazy.
