Aaron Lambertus

I completed my clinical rotation at Carl T. Hayden VA medical center in Phoenix through ASU Edson College of Nursing. I was paired with a different nurse each week in nearly every unit of the hospital.

I learned nursing skills including medication administration, assessments, and clinical reasoning. I also worked with my assigned nurses to admit and discharge patients, along with giving and receiving hand-off reports. I spent my entire final semester in the emergency department at the VA learning more about emergency medicine, and working in a fast paced environment.

By the end of the rotation, I was handling three patients at a time on my own, completing their admission, assessments, charting, care, and eventually discharge.
