I am afresh to work today after i had a 12hrs sleep.
Today i was kinda nervous initially because my preceptor, mummy foo is not attached with me in the same room. I tried my luck informing the sister hoping she'll re-allocate but mission failed.
My day passed by quite smoothly other than one patient's became not arousable and noted by a doctor just in time. Several nurses came over to assist and was later transferred to ICA. I ended up with taking 4 cases, instead 5. (My in-charge follow-up)
I think i am lucky that today i worked with nice nurses - Lino(SSN), Lina(SEN), Samuel(PRCP student). It was my first time working with Lina. She projected to me as a good nurse role model - she knows her work well, perform task efficiently(foresee what is needed next and do preparation), caring to patient as well as colleague(she told me to see my report while she doing changing herself) and most importantly is her attitude. I like her.
And of course, not forgeting Lino, who is helpful to guide me for the day and with Samuel around, i feel i have a 'kaki' together.

PRCP - my first night
This is my very first night shift at ward. I want it to be a memorable one, that's why i am having them type down in my blog.
I arrived at ward 9.10pm and discovered that i am late! (well, i thought start work at 9.30pm)The staffs were nice to wait for me before passing report...
Working night means having more patients to jaga. I am assisting at B2 M-side + half of room patients. It was quite challenging, managing with non-compliance patients who tried to get out of bed by themselves despite repeated warning, elderly who repeatedly claim BO but there isn't, AMS patient waking up middle of night and doing new admission at the same time.
I like the night ambience, quieter with less traffic. No difficulty with searching for equipments and the staffs are nice to help keep a watchout for each other's patients.
Now that i am more familiar with the night routine, I believe my second night i will be a more organized and efficient one :)
