Dec. 10th, 2003 06:09 pm- AM care went very well today, and I was solo on the pod. Score one for Chandi!!
- I am getting G her brekky when the LPN asks me to come in while he does an in and out catheterization for a sterile specimen on a woman who is no longer toileted (she uses "attends" which are like adult sized nappys) for two reasons 1) good for me to see these things, and 2) it's comforting to have another woman there becasue the LPN was a male. I jumped at the chance, no one else has gotten to see anything like that done (in my class). I have decided I never want to be catheterized.
- I got to do vitals today, I did them on 3 of my clients. Accurately too, because I checked their charts, and I was pretty much on the nose for my BP's. Happy am I.
- Tomorrow I'm in the bath house helping the bath team. Great fun :)
