i'm currently a third-year student nurse. i've had to deal with some nursing facilitators in my first and second year placements, who are very mean and usually pick on you without a reason. i would like to call it "prejudice" or "silent bullying".
i'm not saying that i'm better than them, but i have done a great job and totally know how confident I am. As students, we are on our placements to learn and develop our skills. However, those facilitators just expect you to be perfect and usually go around to tell nurses bad things about you. They make up some ridiculous problems in you that are not necessarily true. As a result, you are poorly judged by your preceptors and colleagues. On the outside, the facilitators pretend to be nice to you, but then they tell your preceptor/CNEs/Assessor to write terrible things on your assessment paper and fail you.
I have no idea why these women are still mentally stuck with their high-school cattiness. I believe that they have some ego issues, crave for power, enjoy wricking havoc and causing students suffering.
My friends and I have discussed the issue with our lectures and uni staff, but it seems that they don't want to believe us but defend and cover up for each other.
Why are some nursing facilitators so mean?
