Kak Haniza's Crib.
Ended work slightly later than usual because was tied up at work. Just as I was about to take over Obs 1 in the Resus room as Saroja about to send a patient up, in came a resus case and Doris instructed me to page the doctors and nurses. Wah. Instead of only keeping an eye on a conscious-sedated kid I had to be involved in the resus. Good thing it wasn't so bad but still ended a little late.
After work, went to Kak Haniza's house with some of the CE girls, namely Doris, Bing Ling, Veron, Hui Ting, Lailee, Yanti, Kak Ros, Julianah, Kak Rakiyah and one more who's an ex-staff of CE, to visit her and her newborn baby. Fun time! There was a time where Kak Ros, Yanti, Julianah, Lailee, Rakiyah and I were seated at the dining table talking about work stuff. Wah. Got me thinking that maybe the 'management' in CE is not very good. Made me think that it wouldn't be such a bad idea to 'move' to another hospital once my bond's up and once I got my Advance Diploma in Emergency Nursing. I feel like getting my hands on adults instead of kids. I want to see all the gory and gob-smacking horrible accidents that happens to them. I want to be able to feel free while working, not being so uptight about 'reputations'. Like using the PA system for things like "Doctor XX to the practical room" or "Doctor XX to call Doctor XY" or "Paging for Doctor XX/Nurse XY", instead of running all over the department to look for them. I want to wear scrubs. I want to be able to have Nursing Managers or Clinicians that we can talk openly with. I want to have the NMs and NCs OUT THERE doing procedures and resus and triaging and basic things like pasting the urine bag or taking the blood or serving fleet enema with the rest of the nurses.
It was fun hearing about Yanti's and Julianah's experience on their Adv. Dip. clinical postings to different hospitals. We also joked about who would be the next NM or NC and how the management would be like. Super funny.
Then there's always the session where Yanti's boobs are mentioned. Haha.
So much to plan for my future!
Anyway, I'm beat!
In my own world,
