Last Days are Memorable!
I don't know why but ever since 3rd year college during my RLE duty, something unexpected happens during the last day. I don't know why or maybe it's just me that's thinking too much..sigh~
Yesterday was my last day of staffing duty. The Pedia-ICU [the unit which I was assigned to] had three patients. One was super duper critical, the other moderately critical, and the last was already quite fine. I thought, being only a staffing student nurse, the nurse on duty would assign me to the patient who needs the least critical care. The moment she uttered the words and assigned me to the most critical patient, I was like..."sure ka mam?"
The patient was a few days old with severely complicated diseases. The baby also had numerous side drips and IV lines. The baby is also to be suctioned as needed.He had an NVS of 2/8. And did I mention that when I received my patient, he was currently on blood transusion.I was really like..aiyooo~~ can I handle this?
For the first 3 hours, I was scrambling in the ward. I was not able to start my charting until 7pm! Good thing things got smoothly after 7pm. I was feeling organized and had a little control on things.
It finally was 11pm and ha! I made it!^_^ I browsed through my charting and realized that that has been my longest charting in my entire student nurse life. Not only that, most of it were indented which meant that I mostly did procedures or administered meds.
Haish~ it was a hard last day, but I'm glad I successfully went through it! I know I've learned a lot! I never thought a single day could give me so much lessons! hehehe..^_^ so never waste your day, ok?^_^ God bless~!!
