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 :)
