Tenth week of work where is the time going 2nd-5th September. On Sunday 2nd on a late so went to Rhodes food shopping first. When paying realized had left knickers in bag which used for laundry and groceries. How embarrassing trust me luckily don't think anyone saw and at least we're clean ones. Then went for a run but too hot so did 1.02 then 1.05, managed to do 2.07miles. On late was busy had two MET calls for same patient as had low conscious level. At first their couldn't decide whether to take patient to ICU but went about 8ish. Then we had one patient go to CCU.
On Monday was on early started off alright had a patient go to RPA for radiotherapy. When came back blood sugar 2.5 gave hypokit came up to 3.3 then dropped again to 2.3. Dr aware gave IV 50% glucose and blood sugar came up to 8.6. In meantime patients pulse 126 and temperature 38.2, IV paracetamol given as couldn't manage oral and ECG done. Was with patient for about 2hours so didn't go to lunch til 3ish had a quick break, then did writing. Got belated birthday card from Ruth with ITunes voucher in and tried Australia one I bought and now works, so can get music now.
Met Dwayne at night he picked us up on the way back from work with his workmates, who got lost on way back to city. Went to Dwayne hostel at Wolloomooloo, in inner city Sydney. Thought my accommodation but his more basic has 3 sets of bunk beds in one room so 6 can share but only 3 at moment. Then went to meet his friend Paul near Central station. Who had a friend with him who used to be on Home and Away played Sally's husband Flynn. It was then to Paul's place in Marrickville so Dwayne could leave car there, as keeps getting parking fines. Had a drink and then went to get something to eat but getting late so not much open so just had a kebab. Dwayne laughed at me as I made a mess with dipping sauce everywhere. Then time to catch train home was nice to see Dwayne again just shame didn't get much time on own.
On Tuesday woke up early before 8 and not at work til 1.30. So decided would go for a run and was going well then fell over at 0.75 miles as caught foot on stone. Was tempted to stop but didn't think it was that bad but I carried on and managed to run 2.05 miles. When got realized had grazed right knee and left elbow and both hands, oh dear.. Had a shower and then looked like I would have bruise on left hip.At work was busy but not too bad had patient back from ICU with trachy. Now happy to do on my own and even showed another staff how to change inner cannula and do dressing. At night struggled to get to sleep as couldn't get comfy due to bruises.
Then on Wednesday on a early and team leader for our side. Was a nice morning working 2 good staff but one finished at 1 then was abit manic. I had to handover since team leader and was ok. We had patient with ascitic drain and for albumin after every 2 litres. Seemed to repeat a few times to one staff probably didn't help as done so much. Then patient with tachy wanting to get up into chair didn't really have time, so got physio to review her.
Once home found shoes I liked on ebay from Nine West for half the price to bought. At night off to Newtown for dinner with Nat and Bianca. Went to Thai restaurant where Bianca been to before, was good just shared 2 dishes. Then after fancied something sweet so to Max Brenner and shared a chocolate pizza. First time Nat had one think she enjoyed. It was then time to catch train got train to Burwood so we thought but only got so far and came back to Newtown. No idea why but continued to Redfern and changed there for Rhodes. So for some reason spent 20 minutes on train for no reason.
