As a new nurse, I am most frightened of messing up a medication order. I want to work in a Medical Intensive Care Unit, which is one of the most high stress jobs there is in nursing, in my opinion. Although I know I can handle the stress, I am terrified of giving someone the wrong dose of their medication. But, it is a good thing I am extremely organized and rewrite almost everything whenever someone gives me information. I know medication errors happen all the time in nursing, and it can be minor, but it could also mean someones life. By addressing this fear I will stay on top of all my medications and orders during clinical and at work to exercise away my fear. I could communicate my fear to my preceptor by telling them my weaknesses and strengthening throughout the 14 weeks by always staying on top of my patients orders/medications and constantly double checking labels and dosages. I hope that my preceptor will provide me with guidance in my weaknesses and turn them into strengths.
