~ 'Wonderful' busy day... ~
11:59:00 pm
Today, we've broke our record... 5 admissions just on the male side alone... Actually we were expecting only 4 admissions but it ended up to be 5... And I thought that 4 was terrible enough... But 5 was worse... It was SO busy that both me and my SSN did not even went for our break...
~FYI... My ward discipline is actually Geriatric Medicine (GRM), which is for the elderly, and the turnover rate is pretty slow since most patients are long stayers... Therefore, 5 admissions is rather uncommon...~The other time when I worked with my preceptor, we had to admit 4 patients... And now, 5... So much so that I'm being nicknamed the "Admission Girl"... Oh, how I just 'LOVE' admissions... *Bleargh*...
But hey!! I've survived... Although there were a couple of stuffs that I missed out... Thank goodness my SSN double checked it for me... *Heh*...
And yes, I literally got scolded by my SAN and ward clerk for not going for my break... P.S. Please note that they are no inverted commas in the scolded word...
And oh... I'm expecting more admissions tomorrow... How 'wonderful'... Be prepared my dear Nadiah... *Haha*...
Wish me a good day at work alright!! Peace...
*If you're wondering why I hate admissions so much is because of the endless changes that we have to do... And the interviewing part which is the Nursing Assessment Records... It just sucks when you can't communicate with the patients... So now, must learn to love it... Heh*
