I am sorry for the delay for posting. Working night shift combined with all that comes with learning a new job has been kicking my behind lately! I wish I could say all was fantastic, but there are a few things causing issues. I do love the environment, as well as the patient population. So many of my coworkers are absolutely incredible! One of my preceptors tends to disapear, and they have been amazing about checking on me and helping me out when things start going south with my patient, or if I have a question! I do wish a few things with orientation were different. Honestly, one situation I am put in a lot makes me want to quit. I'm planning on talking to my educator about it soon, in order to provide the best care possible for my patients, I need to learn a lot now. A large barrier to that should be able to be resolved, so heres hoping!
In other news, my sister has a doctor's appointment on Wednesday. We are hoping for good news, but she is definitely scared, as is the rest of the family. We would definitely appreciate prayers!
My schedule is weird this month; I worked Saturday night, was off Sunday, and work the next three nights. The nice thing is that I was able to attend the singing at my church Sunday evening! The down side is staying on a night shift schedule on a day off. I am hoping that next month will be better. And, honestly, as much as I love how much calmer things tend to be on night shift, as well as my night shift peeps, I am hoping that I'll get to move to days. It will be a lot different, but I think I will feel healthier again with that move.
How have all of you been? Anything new in your life?
Happy Stitching!
