Daily Schedule: Lecture on Mon. and Tues. from 8am - 2pm
Wards on Weds., Thurs., and Fri. from 6:30-2:30
Actual Daily Schedule: No real change from what is posted above.
What to wear: Scrubs. It's good to have an extra shirt if you happen to be the recipient of any projectiles
What's in my pockets: Brains ( a tool to organize your day- the one in your head is good to have too), Assessment and medication sheet, pens, band-aids, granola bar.
Patient notes you'll be asked to write: assessments and safety notes.
What to study: I have been spending most of my time on the pulmonary unit. I've been reading a lot about pediatric respiratory issues, pediatric interventions in a kid-friendly way. Of course, all systems.
A few unforgettables along the way: sitting in on a cranial reconstruction, seeing a patient with right lung agenesis (born with only one lung)
Curious things other students do: 1. text messaging- which I find is unprofessional. 2. talking to patients like they are adults. 3
I am tired exhausted of school. The amount of information that is thrown at us is ridiculous. I am so over this.
