A super respected, smart, hard working day shift nurse submitted me for employee of the quarter. & that just gave me so much validation from somebody that I look up to.
Dealt with a very sick and critical pt tonight and told one of the travelers that I was exhausted. She said “I can tell you’ve been doing this for a while”; I told her I was 5 months old. She looked at me with her mouth wide open. Guess that means I’m doing okay?
About a year and a half ago, I got a palliative care call. An old dog, an oral tumor, already gone through radiation. Kidney values ‘too high for NSAIDs’ and ‘needing help with itching’ and probably euthanasia.
I’m so glad they called.
Harley just threw up all over my bed, floor and basket of clean scrubs… I can’t be mad at her but let me tell you I wasn’t planning on cleaning all of those things today
