About Me

My photo
Just the blunt and honest me. Just someone who needs to air her inner most feelings and thoughts. Just a female who suffers from a crazy life journey, with lots of ups and down in her life. Just another moronic human being who wishes for peace and serenity in life one day.

Un-suited For Ward Life

Been back to work for nearly about 2 months now and I am still mal-adaptive to ward life. It is not the shift work that I am not adjusting. It more of the work. I am still forgetting stuff like what needs to be done prior to certain procedures and what I can't am not supposed to do as a nurse as well as what I am supposed to do at different times. I forgot about flushing central venous lines, taking consents prior to blood transfusions, giving of insulin injections or even certain protocols. Then, I am doing stuff that is meant for doctors to be done.

I am beginning to wonder I am supposed to cope for the next 2years. I can't ask for transfer back to outpatient setting, where I am more familar now as I have signed a contract to work as inpatient post my advanced diploma. *Sigh*

I am really not sure what I have gotten myself into :(
Anyway, on a positive note, I am collecting my advanced diploma certification on Monday. That means I have another 'toilet-paper' to my added to my future resume or CV...
