Exhausted

Hey pple...it been weeks i diden update my blog..bz with my work. To my friends wondering how i am doing right now? i am doing fine..it just that i am bz working and trying to adapt with my job scope in my work place. i requested for OT and surgical department..and glad that i was given a surgical ward. i thought i would be given a surgical ward in the main building which i usually work during my attachment but to my surprise i was given a day surgery ward..in the first place i really have no idea what will be the ward setting..but i know it will be different from the usual surgical ward.

after the orientation all that..i am comfortable with my working place. With total strenght of 45 collegues i definitely have trouble remembering their names..(ye lah STM katekan).i am one of the few youngers staff there..most of my collegues were very-very the senior..with their knowlege and experiences..i am definitely a seed which trying to grow while they were already a big tall tree with strong base.In the first place, i felt uncomfortable approaching my collegue for help and enquiries coz their looks and expression when they look at me..really make me nervous, some looks really arrogant and some faces Stated "What Do You want!?"..but to my surprise they are the one who willing to teach me alot of things..and very approachable..some even give me one whole book explaination althought i only ask about one chapter. I have learned not to jugde a book by its cover.

3 weeks past fast, and i have no preceptor to guide me along. All i have is a different buddy each day to guide me along for my first week and i was already on my own on the 2nd week to handle my work...it is really stressful for me as fresh graduate to work at my ward coz with the little experiences that i have, i will have some difficulties handling some cases especially during admission..some of the diagnosis i am really not sure wat is it man!So complicated! and i have to know different medical term anatomy of the body, different type of sedation,and even medication..argh!And the way doctors wrote the diagnosis on the consent form..i cunt even figure out what they wrote! Admitting an adult is more easier than admitting a kid..once they start crying..aiyoh you will have a hard time for the rest of the day...

for the first 2 weeks..i been doing admission and on my 3rd week they assign me in the cubicle..receiving post op from the OT and also nursing care for them..it really a different scope from the normal ward.Over here i have to receive the pt, receive report from the Ot staff and beside monitoring the vital sign, i have to write a report on the pt condition..since it is a short post-op, every detail have to write down.

the advantages of me working there is Sun and PH definetly be my off day..which i will not have in other wards..but the disadvantages are since it is a short post op care, i will not be able to see some chronic cases and face some challenges in my nursing career..and i felt that my learning journey is really limited. But watever it is i try to take a step at a time.
