Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. ~Seneca
My supervisor told me that because I am a new home health nurse, she expects to see a “deer in the headlights” look before the end of orientation. I’m not sure I can muster the appropriate feelings for that. It’s her fault (along with the rest of the staff). It is an amazing team at an extremely ethical, patient-centered company (apparently this is not the norm). The office does all the coding, the documentation is streamlined. Everyone has made me feel so welcome, so supported, that I know I’ll get whatever I need to succeed. I can ask anyone anything and they will all be happy to help. I’ll be autonomous in the field, but never alone. I feel incredibly lucky to have stumbled upon this agency.
My sudden reversal of fortune just proves that being open to change can bring opportunities to you that you never would have imagined. I start with my preceptor on Monday. I can’t wait to get out there!
