I would definitely have to name my consolidation preceptor. I completed my consolidation on a cardiology ward. I was coming from placement in a Peterborough hospital. When I arrived to the high traffic short staffed cardiology ward in Scarborough I was not prepared. My preceptor demonstrated work ethic unlike i’ve ever seen in these other hospitals. She had found the balance of addressing pt.’s needs while not killing herself in the process and this is what she taught me. She taught me how to save time with my skills safely, she taught me the critical thinking of prioritizing and triaging, but to me most importantly she demonstrated the importance of a team player. The multidisciplinary team worked together for each individual patients best interest and the communication between all staff was intertwined yet seperate to each individuals scope. My preceptor as well as the whole team set me up for success by identifying the multi hats I need to wear as a nurse and how to wear each one effectively.
