Doing My Part
It was February 28th, the first day I was scheduled to be working on my own as a staff nurse. I began working at Crossroads in October and was grateful for the generous orientation period that had been wisely planned by Tresa and Cindy. During those five months, I had been working on refreshing and expanding my OB knowledge base, taking a 30-hour didactic course online through Heartbeat International, learning ultrasound scanning techniques from Tresa, and traveling to California to complete the clinical component of Heartbeat’s ultrasound training.
