posting to AH, DEM, ended ytd.
i could say, e posting was really fun and i learnt alot.
although there isnt much cases here, we still learn thru theory.
sister and staffs are really helpful and very willing to teach.
two weeks of attachment in AH taught me alot.
it is definitely a nice place to learn. =)
 
first day in A&E, had an resuscitation case that came in.
i got involved.. and, i did CPR on a real patient. for my very first time.
nurses and doctors were really trying their best to save her, but she still left anyway.
the whole process was really fast and we are really challenging with the time.
its only 6mins to pronounce a patient brain dead,  6mins.
wasnt really affected by her death cus i sort of read her case.
but i did my part, my best to save her too.   =)
may she rest in peace.
 
second day in A&E was in the procedure room.
so, normally doctors will order some procedure to be done..
eg. injections, dressings, suturing, bandaging.
the staff nurse was really nice. almost all the case i did that day.
i gave injections, i did dressings, i assisted in suturing..
e staff nurse basically let me do everything.
it was very nice of him, so trusting of my skills. LOLS.
i hope i din disappoint him. hahas..
 
third day was in the triage.
what they do here is, taking the vital signs and triage them accordingly to P1 or P2.
i was attached to the Clinical Instructor that morning.
well, also very nice of him..during our free time, he will teach me. like, ECG.
i m really bad at reading ECG.. i couldnt ans almost all his qns. OMG !!
but he was patient luh… 
my afternoon was attached to sister.
she is really very nice sister. best sister i ever seen..
she taught me too.. alot alot. and even help me to find a case study tt i was supposed to present to HER on friday.
LOLS..
 
fourth day, nothing much..
fifth day was the most relaxing day.
reported to work and i got myself involved in a critical case again.
really participated as a nurse 3. hahas..
nothing much to do anyways.. jus ECG and BGM.  and standby to do CPR if patient collapse.
it was fun luh.. patient din collapse anyways.. jus breathless, case of C.O.L.D
fulfillment, satisfaction.
den, presented our cases to sister.. a short meeting frm 230pm to 530pm.
sister did a lot of talking that day, non-stop. hahas…
and had an hour of break.. and went back to e ground.
sister talked to us again.. for abt an hour? before she went for her dinner.
so, we left another hour..
there was really nothing to do.. e A&E was really quiet that night.
seriously, i strongly encourage if you hav an emergency, but its non-life threatening, go to AH..
there isn’t going to be a LONG waiting time and u will be attended to.  =) take my advice.
DEM is fun.. i may even consider joining khoo teck puat DEM after graduation..
cus like wat they say, i may lost my skills if i join paramedics right after graduate.
so, why not start from A&E?    but i still like paramedics..
probably 2 years of A&E before i go for my 1.5years of paramedics course?
i still love ambulance. =) 

attachment finally ended and 1 mth of break is here.
results are releasing nxt week. well, excited.
excited to see how many ‘F’ ‘s i will get.    =)
i really din do well tis time round.

 简简单单，平平淡淡的生活
或许。。 也是一种幸福。
