Hey how have u been.. I really have not written in my blog for ages... its december agaIN AND I THINK ABOUT LAST DECEMBER WHEN I WAS STILL A STUDENT... and going for A and E, OT and Gerontology placement... Times really flies without u really knowing it... Recently I find myself more and more settled in my job, so its time to do oither things... though i dun really know where to start to start living a life...
Yesterday I was afternoon shift... And i did a very unique procedure that even my preceptor who worked for 26 years never did before... Its called Intra periotoneal chemotherapy. The patient has a port in the abdominal region and we are suppose to insert a right angle needle into the port to instill 1 litre of warmed up normal saline, then after that we give the patient diuretics (medication to pass urine ), after that we instill the chemo and another solution called Sodium thiosulphate which is to protect the kidneys and the bladder cause the chemo is toxic to the bladder... The chemo mixed in the 1 litre of N/S we put in already is to make it easier to mix around the peritoneal region...
But i guess I have a sense of achievement , cause now i know something special other ppl (who are even very senior) dun really know... I think i am slowly but surely improving. And now i always make it a point to go for my break and go home on time.. cause work is just work... but off course i love my job just as much...!!!
Today will going out to celebrate one of my colleague (shirley) birthday... Quite excited . i think i want to bring a camera to take lots of pictures...
