So clinical's are coming to an end...and we are moving as a group over to another area in santa ana. its with the military instructor and i have to say im scared to the bageebies. I see some of the most horrific things there. pressure ulcers the size of the persons back and if you don't know what a pressure ulcer looks like please let me give you a visual...this is a stage 4 pressure ulcer. the worst you can get. it has complete skin break down and the red you see in the center is muscle. this is caused by someone simply didn't do their job.
this is what i see and deal with on a daily basis. this is why i want to be a nurse so i can prevent this from happening to someone else. this is only the beginning of what i see.
