Fundamentals test...I think I was prepared enough, but I guess I will find out soon. Sorry I was so short yesterday, I had studying to do. Anyway...In lab yesterday we did injections, and thank GOD not on each other! Otherwise I would feel sorry for the person who had me. We practiced drawing up medications...Thanks to Kelly I was a pro! :) We also had these squares of 'skin' to practice giving insulin injections and making wheels for TB tests. As the instructor was explaining the insulin injection, she said "there are some who are pushers and some who are darters, I am a darter." Well she wasn't kidding! I have never witnessed an insulin injection before, so I was a little shocked! I asked "Is there a way with less stabbing motion to it?" She said no and "it's not stabbing its 'darting'." Boy was I mistaken, it looks like your stabbing them to me! She said I did it good on the test square, but we'll see when I have a real piece of skin in front of me. I am excited for flu injections tomorrow, but those aren't quite so stabby-like.
