Nursery Journal

When I first walked into nursery, it felt like a nice and chill environment. It did not feel like the vibes like the other units were everyone is doing something or in a rush. When I walked into the nursery, everyone was on the computers charting and I asked if there was someone I could follow and they just told me to sit down in a chair in the room but they told me nicely.

Since every nurse was busy on the computers, I just decided to walk around and look at the babies that were in the nursery. There was only four and they were all sleeping when I started to walk around. Even thought I had nothing to do, I loved looking at the babies and seeing how adorable they are when they wake up and how they look like wrapped burritos. Some left and some new ones came and I took the advantage to walk with the nurses whenever they take the baby back to their mothers at postpartum.

I literraly did not learn anything new at this unit. The nurses were too busy charting and walking up for like a couple of seconds to another room and then back to chartting.

My overall experience in the nursing unit was bad because I did not learn anything new and nothing was going on to observe. I was also disappointed because this type of stuff is the type of stuff I want to do in the medical field.
