Being a RN. What is the worst you see?

Question

what is the worst you see in nursing school trough all your school.

Do you see dead people? Do you have to be in trauma ?

I am ok with seeing blood or helping sick people, but i cannot see massive things that why i would like to work in a clinic not a hospital.

Give me anything i need to know thanks in advance.

of course you see nasty stuff. and you smell the most nasty smells you can imagine too. yes, you see dead people...people die in hospitals! u will see trauma if you work in ER. otherwise, a patient on the floor can go bad and you might be in a trauma type situation trying to revive them. nursing school sends you through all kinds of areas of the nursing field so you will see all kinds of stuff. working in a clinic is only for LPN's, NOT a RN....being a RN in a clinic is worthless...you wont make any money at all. I have seen some of the nastiest stuff you  can imagine, so if you cant handle the sights and smells, then i suggest a different career field.
