You know what? Sometimes, the most irritating person can be a very nice person too... Well, I never expected it coming from that particular doctor though... *Hehe*...
I had a patient that needed a vaginal culture swab today... And so, I had to assist this particular doctor, whom I really, really dislike cuz he's SO damn irritating, in the PV or
per vagina examination... And knowing that I had never seen (probably I had but I just couldn't remember) or assisted in this procedure before, he actually took the trouble to explain the whole procedure to me STEP-BY-STEP... From outside and all the way inside... So cute and nice of him... *Haha*... And for once, I didn't find him irritating...
But he will always be my most irritating doctor... Cuz each time we nurses asked him to do something like re-siting an IV plug, he would just grumble and nag, why this and that... But of course, all of us would just 'close' our ears and pretended that we never asked him anything... After which, he would still do his job... Well, it IS his job after all... *Haha*...
Anyway, all the AM shift staff had to attend this UBQIC meeting (a level meeting) after work... And you know what? Nursing is NOT just about caring for the patients... It's about $$ too... Yup, business... A bed that is not occupied would cost the hospital $700+... So, it would consider that we're incurring a loss... That is why probably health care is expensive... Everything cost $$...
But then again, if there's no sick person, people like us would be out of job cuz that's where our income comes from... So, it's still a cycle thingy...
At the end of the day, money is still as important... You cannot survive without money... Not in a place like here...
