i had one patient.... came in for cancer of the stomach.... went for removal of the stomach... and came up to my ward... was with us for a week....
for the 1st 4 days, he was completely bedridden... couldn't clean himself up.. couldn't change his own diappers.... couldn't do anything... the nurses took care of him...
we -gave him medications -gave him IV antibiotics -did daily dressings coz he had a fucking big hole in his tummy... -changed his diapers -helped him walk -fed him when he could finally eat.
and today he totally pissed me off. told the drs that they saved his life and the nurses did not do anything......
WTF.... should have just sent him home after the OP. see who would have cleaned his white backside for him....
then after a while he asked for help to change his diapers... and i told him to call the dr who saved his life.... maybe he could help.... ______________________________________
patients.... haiz haiz.... we try and help them and what they do is just make life difficult for us... irratate us... make HORRIBLE demands.... what has the world come to... they should be happy they are still alive.... ______________________________________
when ur patients dun understand u, u expect the people around u to understand rite... haiz... i guess its just a joke to them....
nurses either become porn material or they are shit cleaners or maids... WE DUN SAVE LIFES.....
then they should have more drs coz they save lives what....
lets just say a patient collapses in a ward... the nurse sees it first and we start the CPR first... if we were to wait for the drs to come and start the resusitation, u would probably already be in heaven and be flying around with ur great and great great grandparents....
WE DUN SAVE LIVES!!!..... WE DUN!!! WE DUN!!!
trust me... if we wanted... we only need 10 mls of air in a syringe and an IV plug.... u'll be flying....
