long haitus

4 nights after almost more than a year of break from a night routine. i think i still got it but gosh i am so burnt! on the 1st night it was just 2 of us to 14 pt and 1 admission (avg ~7pt to 1 staff). sound simple enough compared to my previous ward where it can be easily 26 pt with only 3 staff (avg ~8pt to 1 staff). but the later had me working with more experienced staff. this time round i am super swamped mainly because i am working with a brand new girl and she isn't much help. apart from doing her own stuff, she is rather slow thus even if she wants to help out she can't do much. plus this is her 1st setr of night as a staff! my dear sister had put her in charge rather than junior... only for me to find out that she don't really know what to do as a junior on night! argh... in the end i had to do both jr and ic. then on my last night with a full house (14 pts), i must have a bedside chest tube insertion! aiyo... it must be the season for chest tubes! but grumbling aside, i must praise the young girl for her teachable spirit and her ability to take my 'scolding'... hopefully in months and years to go she will be able to work fast and teach her jr. as for now... I AM SUPER TIRED! time for me to cuddle my baby... =)
