*hetic *, luvs



In just a twink of eye, my 2 days off jus pass by and i've been back to the ward for 2 days, tml i'm off again..=)

.. firstly.. wanna thank chong who treat us ! Thai food, thai express at plaza sing.. was quite nice.. and cheap too! unfortunately no pics, nobody actually brought camera to take picture..

was tempted to buy things from cotton on, and etude, but i stopped myself la.. to waste unecessary money.. *yay*

back to the ward, sometimes i really think that, the room i'm in charge in, Room 24, is really cursed, it's super hetic again..

the first day i went back to work after my rest day, i was Pm shift, i took over from another staff who was relatively new, i can understand that she'll need more time to adapt .. but, it's too much for me to handle, i've to do changes for both morning and afternoon .. so . who's gonna help me?
i believe it's all about prioritising, if u can't set ur priorities right, u can't work accordingly and u will never finish work on time ever, no matter how senior u are.

that's how i learn, to do the more impt changes first.. thanx to kak yan who taught me that. =)

on that day, i had 3 empty beds, that means new admissions.. i have 3 sick patients, 1 is active, it's excatly the same as the previous sick patient i had who recently passed on.. his skin is super bad, to the extent that it'll tear once u move it.. literally skin tear.. he's wrapped up with jelonet the whole body.. he's super sick.

i'm so stressed that i really feel like jus walking out of the ward and tell sister i'm not feeling well... that stressed! i wanted to cry already, but realised that crying won't solve any problem and running away from problem is not a solution.. so i grit my teeth and work.

with God's grace, i managed to finish my work on time! and my patients were all safe and sound.. Praise the lord!

i have to say , that there's no quality of care delivered to patients, if we have lack of staff.. the thing is we just wanna make sure that we finish our work on time and we don't pass unecessary things to other colleagues , we jus rush thru our work.. and it will definetly affect our attitudes towards patients..

on the other hand, if we had more staff, which i experience before.. we'll have more patience and we'll deliver more precise and quality care to patients and we are able to attend to their needs..

this is one of the few problems we nurses face, always.. Lack of staff. i really hope that staffing will improve in the future... =)

today, i spent a wonderful cuddly cuddly day with hubby tan, i really hope there're more time spent like this with him.. =)

*lurves*


hubby tan, hunny koh miss u already now..
