that I remember these days when I was transitioning from being a student to now a qualified nurse who is in an actual setting like a nurse now, no longer a student nurse but a qualified and role nurse and it was in this hospital, it is a cancer center and I would say it affected me both both positively and negatively. It affected me positively in the fact that now I was able to know like put whatever I had gathered for three years in my nursing journey into practice and also like I didn’t have to be under somebody giving me instructions or could practice autonomy And negatively I would say adapting to the fact that you’re in a new environment you don’t know anyone and yeah it comes with some pressure wherever you want to do the right thing every now and then and yeah and having to ask for help from you people you’re not used to and then during your lunch break you are not talking to many people but I will say how I was able to transition now was the fact that I was open to learning from people I was open to knowing people to interacting with them to get corrected where I’m wrong to give my views where I feel there is need to and yeah

I remember the days when I was transitioning from being a student to a qualified nurse in an actual setting. I was no longer a student nurse but a qualified nurse, and it was in this hospital, a cancer center. I would say it affected me both positively and negatively. It affected me positively in that I was able to apply everything I had learned over three years in my nursing journey into practice. I also had the autonomy to make decisions without someone constantly giving me instructions. Negatively, adapting to a new environment where I didn't know anyone came with some pressure. I wanted to do the right thing, and it was challenging to ask for help from people I wasn't used to. During lunch breaks, I found myself not talking to many people. However, I was able to transition successfully because I was open to learning from others. I made an effort to get to know my colleagues and interact with them. I welcomed corrections when I was wrong and shared my views when I felt it was necessary. This openness helped me adapt to my new role and build relationships in the workplace.
