played with my daughter all morning but slept in the afternoon, woke up and ate dinner
then
went to the hospital to work the nights shift...
Rm 8: Both guys got their meds and have been good and sleeping.
assisted MD on a bedside surgery on Rm 10(simple I and D)
-couldnt help it, the intern looked like on the verge of tears
got the old russian guy in RM 14 to take his meds(he's refusing all day)
-the guy just wants to take his meds with tea(doesnt anyone speak russian anymore sheesh?)
Rm 16 Crashed..I helped a newbie RN with the Code Blue. Patient's BP was sliding all day. Stupid Emergency Room in their games to clear their unit forgot to Triage again. (Patient should have stayed in ED or sent to MICU.)
Got her stable, tubed and sent to the Unit
I need a VR Famoso Robusto right about now..
Rm 18 ..is acting out again. Sundowner...old man by the door that sleeps all day but is demented at night. At least he is awake for medications. Got his his medications and cleaned him up. This managed to calm down the irate guy by the window so both are asleep. Hopefully until after I leave my shift.
Rm20...Why they hospitalized persons for drinking too much is beyond me.
Struck a deal with this patient. No acting up, no violent outburst and I personally will give him coffee. I gave him half of my Mr Jerry's freshly ground coffee in my thermos. Calm all night. We talked about 9-11. He is grateful. Well if he gets violent again, its someone else's problem now.
Got the paperwork done, gave all antibiotics and left work. I got my box from the PO bought a gallon of milk for my little one. My Trini Reyes and Mag 46 ECA Feb 03 arrived!! Got home, played with my girl. I tucked in my new babies in the humi. The wife was still asleep so I woke her up and made coffee. I went to bed after.
At least my day at work wasn't so bad
Will smoke something for 2006 this weekend. gnight or good morning
