supposed to be my day off yesterday. unfortunately, the ward sister called me back to work whilst i was happily shopping for my groceries early in the morning. don't know why, but when i woke up yesterday morning, i've got a strong feeling that this will happen. already had my whole day planned up ahead!
reluctantly, i went home and get ready for work. i prayed extremely hard that everything will go smoothly during my shift. well, my prayers was unheard.
first of all, my ward sister assigned me to be in charged of 8 patients. being in charge sucks. terribly. once i took over, everything happened at once. doctors came to do rounds, my patient had problem with the urinary tube(which caused him to have distended abdomen and it is not comfortable at all), then gotta assist a doctor to remove drains and staples, an ICU admission, gotta serve antibiotics and other medication, etc.. i mean one person can only do so much. right?
i hardly drink or ate anything! don't even have time for the toilet!!!!!!!! wanted to break down on the spot and scream my lungs out. i really hope that the time would just stop right there. man... it's really hectic. and the worst part is the report-writing. i did not have time to write or update any of the doctor's orders. i had to stay back and finish up all my stuff. i stayed back till 11.45pm. i had to make sure i've done everything. thank god there's still bus. reached home at 12ooam sharp. i'm exhausted. all drained out.
yea, i know i've got to be prepared for all this. who asked me to choose nursing right?
but i'm human too.
awww hugs..=(
