Weird stuff that I’ve been learning at work…
1. Using my elbow to compress ABG sites at the femoral artery… or tying a glove around the wrist to compress the radial site.
2. The art of tai-chi… aka shooting multiple referrals for one pt to numerous departments, often times hinting that they take over.
3. The art of protecting one’s own ass… (documentation is the magic word!)
4. How to finish lunch in that walk between the canteen and back to the ward. (On the other hand, some people are probably trying to 成仙, cuz they dun eat at all!)
5. Charts to con, IMR to reg, file to myself and start scribbling.
6. Remember to charge the COWS…
7. Learning that work never ends and you really have to prioritise!
