The hard parts

  • An ED review flags severe understaffing and uneven respect between RNs and techs, and later reviews still mention heavy workloads, so ask about current ED staffing ratios before you sign.

Coming off orientation doesn't mean you stop asking for help. Find out who you can go to before the shift gets busy.

On finishing orientation

You can be nervous and still have a good first clinical. Show up ready to listen, and tell your instructor when you need help.
