HI, all! Wondering what I've been up to? Well, I have just finish my first week at emergency departement. How's things? You know how in ER where you see patients with bleeding head and limbs, gunshot wounds come in with blood trailing behind them and alarms going off every minute? Well, doesn't happen in realife... The most exciting thing that happen to me on my first day is seeing a patient with a huge hernia and that wasn't even the reason why she came into ED...
The other "exciting" thing that happen to me during this week was to see a patient who came in through "Bat" call - it's their way of saying it's a urgent case, possibly life-threatening (you know Batman and his Bat signal
). Anyway, the patient came in with status epileptic. On the same day, I saw another patient who came in after falling off a ladder and broke his kneecap. I was acting as a translator while the ED doctors were accessing his conditions. And I got to perform my first real-life venupuncture on a real patient!!!
Yes, I know... it's no big deal... but guess what I take what comes my way...
So till next time...
