Fighting to Stay Sane During Nursing School and Clinical? You’re Not Alone.

“You stand between life and death for a patient. No matter how bad a day you have working on the floor, chances are the patient has had a worse one.”
—Charleston, South Carolina, Nursing Instructor

“I wish someone would have told me that you will feel like quitting many times and that it's totally normal to feel that way but it's all worth it in the end.”
—San Antonio, Texas, Nursing Student

The clinical portion of your nursing studies is a whole new world. Not only do you have to learn the language of nursing, doctors, and patients, but you also have to keep up with your classes and maintain your life outside of school.

How to Survive Clinical shares the stories of current and graduated nursing school students on how they dealt with the stressful issues that came up during their clinical rotations. They also offer wisdom about what they wished they had known before they started. In addition, seasoned instructors talk about what they wish students knew before clinical, and about what advice they have as experienced nurses and educators.
