00:01 Failing a skills lab. This is the worst. 00:05 You feel like your life is over when you're a student, You feel like a failure. 00:11 Well, it's not true. 00:14 There's a reason it didn't make sense or just come easy to you. 00:18 So what can we do? Well, evaluate what you did wrong. 00:23 Be honest with yourself here. Did I practice? Is this a same skill I wasn't completely comfortable with in the lab? Did I go to all the open practice labs and receive help? Ask for feedback because your faculty does want you to pass. 00:42 It doesn't make us feel good to see you fail. 00:45 We want to see you succeed. 00:49 So you need to examine the next steps. 00:52 And the good thing with nursing school, it's not a usual, you fail one thing and you're out of the program. 00:59 Your syllabus usually is going to state, how many attempts you have? You may have at least two other chances to pass but this is program specific. 01:10 Also, talk to your faculty. We want you to ask questions. 01:15 Yes, ask questions. 01:17 Otherwise, how else are you going to learn? You may want to see what you can review. 01:23 If you can practice in the lab before the next checkoff. 01:27 Talk with your faculty. 01:29 Take constructive feedback on what you did wrong. 01:33 Now review materials and practice, practice and oh, practice again until you have it on muscle memory and you can repeat the steps without your notes. 01:48 Hang in there. This is a speed bump in the road. 01:53 It happens and doesn't mean you can't be successful as a nurse and then your program.
