I love clinical. It's a lot of fun and it's great to actually get to perform all the stuff we're learning to do. I know I don't want to be an ortho nurse, for sure, but I still am liking the experience. I have an awesome clinical instructor who is getting us a lot of opportunities to do different things. I get to go to the neuro unit next week and then we also get to watch surgeries when the opportunity is there, which is really great. We got a tour of the new OR floor at Renown. All I can say is WOW. It's amazing. It's gorgeous, HUGE, and very modern. I loved learning about it all. I wouldn't mind being an OR nurse, but I'm thinking it might not be the route for me because you don't get a whole lot of patient interaction and I'm still focusing on Labor and Delivery and eventually grad school for midwifery. My clinical instructor keeps telling me I need to go to grad school. Uhh, I would really just like to survive my undergrad here and get my husband graduated first! haha Then maybe I'll go that route.
Anywho, that's my update. Here's a pic of our clinical group before going into the OR
We're stylin' aren't we?

Good Job Holly. I feel ya. I am so happy that it is past that half mark of the first semester. It has been crazy but I am loving it too. I think about you all the time and give you mad props for doing this when you have a baby to take care of.
Awesome! My mom is an RN! I keep pressing her to become a midwife also :D.
