Last blogged @ 2:00 PM SHOP UR ASS OUT NOW. ![]() Okay, I'm feeling very tired. 2nd day at the ward is extemely exhausting. After seeing how one of the staff nurse treat a patient that is still aware of the surroundings and staffs. This particular patient is in the Isolation Room. I treated him very well. I realise I have a little thing for patients, I can emphathize with them cos I was once a patient admitted for dengue fever. And I know that needles and the way the nurse treat us impacts us. I'm rather sensitive to this word, Pain. I'm very worried sometimes to not be rough with patients cos I'm afraid they might feel painful. So sometimes I refuse to assess to certain tasks. Damnit, why am I like that. Back to the topic. That patient was conscience and aware of what's being done to him, how people treated him and stuffs. So as me and Julie was attempting to clean his sacral wound, we found it hard to turn him to the posterior side. So we got the staff nurse to assist us. She got very rough and the patient got very aggitated. He started scolding her and she scolded her back. The nurse forcefully push the patient so that he was lying with his head downwards. I felt very sorry for the patient I told him in chinese: Sorry ah uncle, you know certain staffs here. Don't get angry. I'm very sorry. Maybe some nurses just wants to get their job done quickly. I honestly felt very sorry for him. I started wondering how was my grandfather treated before he passed away. Was he treated like that in the past? I realise that in the past, I treated nurses with alot of trust and confidence. But now, I don't really know. I'm starting to have doubts on the quality of care. I feel very sad for the patient. I can't really help him. And I feel very helpless. Afterwards, Julie and I done wound dressing for a patient with like 100001 gangreen wounds. I used like 5/6 tubes of normal saline, around 10 maloline and 20 tegaderm for him. The cleaning just goes on and on. That patient had many tattoos on his hands. So the staff told me, Do more good things, you have to pay back before you go 'up'. So I started thinking about retributions and staffs. But the staffs are all very nice there. Really!!! Sometimes nurses just gotta get their work done fast. They've got reports to write, medications to administer, vital signs to take 4 hourly or sometimes Hourly. I think it's tiring. So many things to be done in shortly 7 short hours. Hard. Me & July loves attachment cos we have soooo many 'motivations'!!! Bought a Adidas water bottle for my boy for him to bring work. He uses the one that I accidentally left at his home. Bought him biscuits and Old Chang Kee as well. East point is seriously a weirdddddd feelin' shopping centre. Tomorrow's 8-4pm. My legs ache, alot, alot alot alot. |
