Hey @Dann, all the best for today and the coming months ahead, good on you for actually stepping up.



It's easily the worst thing that has happened to me, I think I'd like to have just gotten to 19 and stayed there forever.

PS - good luck as a hair supermodel today, I hope you've been practicing your flick.

Yes, just got told we could be here for up to 3 hours "more or less". Ugh gonna die here, parked in a 20 minute zone lol.

& Thankyou guys it means a lot. I technically "don't work", and am on Carers ATM (cos freelancing is hard all the time juggling) so that gives me a more stable income for the time being.

Hope it all goes well today with your mum & even better with the op. Eeek! better go move your car! The parking inspector here stalks people to give them tickets at the hospital. Makes me SO cranky.

Ask the hospital, sometimes they give you a card to put in your car which can help inspectors umm OVERLOOK it, I know one hospital I have worked at did, for people who were waiting in recovery, ICU etc, Im not sure with pre op, but never hurts to ask, also if you happen to get one, you can get a letter saying you were in for this reason, which can help at least reduce fine, but again, Im not sure what the hospital or the council in that area is like, last thing you guys need is a ticket too!

Haha! There will certainly be many a pool party. Lots of drunken sliding and general pool tomfoolery a la @jessy_girl's photo (Thanks for the idea, haha). Maybe we can have a BBB post BB BBQ (Gee, that is a lot of Bs), don't know how it will go down with everyone else though... :wink:
 
Oh my God!

Had the most eventful day!

While I pretend to have the nursing knowledge of Florence Nightingale herself, the facts are I am a brand new nurse who has been nursing for 18 months.

Today I had to do an in/out catheter on a woman post AB's for a UTI - no problem I think. I read her notes and see she is a mental health patient, read a bit more - non compliant mental health, read more - non compliant mental health patient under the Mental Health Act. To non nurses this means force must be used when performing necessary nursing interventions.

Well nek minnut there are 4 wardies, 2 AIN's, 1 RN and me. RN tags me to perform it as it will be "great experience for you". So you need to use your imagination at this point. I have a morbidly obese middle aged woman with severe mental health issues, who is squirming like a fish in the bottom of a boat, who is kicking, punching AND spitting and is now screaming at the top of her lungs "YOU'RE KILLING ME!! FUCK OFF YOU PACK OF RAT FACED MONGOLOID CUNTS!!!! FUCK OFFFFFFF!!!" (IKR: who says mongoloid in this day and age but I digress..) So 6 staff hold her down, and the RN has now sort of pushed up her stomach, I am trying to perform an in/out catheter, while trying to locate a urethra which at this point is like trying to locate a pin hole in a mountain of squirming flesh. At this point it felt like an impossible task because a urethra can be difficult to find at the best of times on obese females, by adding the extra burden of a squirming, spitting and screaming woman, who was hell bent on not having what she so desperately needed done, I felt like I would fail her care needs, and to a nurse that is an awful feeling

To be perfectly honest by now my hand is shaking like a junkie on day 2 of detox, but like a miracle I saw an opening, I tried to gently go for it as quick as I could, and thankfully I struck amber coloured oil! YAY!!!!!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I got High 5’ed by the boss and had lots of back patting and felt so happy with myself. However, worst part the ward test revealed another UTI, so I could be doing it all again in 7 days! Fingers crossed it is not on my shift!

Ha!

Nursing people! Its an adventure!

Best. Day. Ever.
