How to feel better after making a mistake? What mistakes have you made?
I made a mistake today, I wouldn’t even call it that, it was just me being unknowledgeable about a patients health conditions & giving them a kind gesture (a cup of regular tea). I did call and ask beforehand if I could get them a cup of tea from the cafe, the nurse just said yeah, but from what I understand now the patient shouldn’t be having caffeine due to heart problems. I did immediately tell the nurse, and say is this okay?? but I didn’t really get given any clarity on the situation. Feeling guilty but patient was ok 4 hours later & chatting with me. This degree is eating me up I feel like I can’t do anything & everything is stressing me out. :(
