DONE!!
Ok, so I just had to post when I got home from the hospital today! I am done! I have completed year 2 and have just returned home after my last "shift" at the hospital! It was such a nice shift too! I spent it in the O.R. I think I have created a record for most surgeries watched by a student while wearing lead! 4!! I have been in 4 surgeries this last rotation and all 4 of them I had to stinking wear lead! Yeesh! None as long as the 3 hour escapade during the first one! Good work out though! But anyways, today all I had to do was simply observe a surgery and then I had my final evaluation with my instructor which went fantastically, and then I got to come home! Beautiful! And I will add that before the surgery started this morning the anesthetist actually let me intubate the patient once she was under anesthetic!! It was sooo cool! **Don't tell my instructor!**;) (intubating is inserting a tube into a patients airway to help them to breath when they are under general anesthetic) So the gist of this post is to say GOOD RIDDANCE to year two...HELLO year 3!! Whooohooo!

Now just don't be prey to the nurses who may play nasty tricks on student nurses! One of my co-workers used to be a nurse, and she and some friends played many tricks on student nurses...for instance: Sending a student from 10th floor to the basement to retrieve fallopian tubes! *LOL* The student was so eager to please(and probably nervous), that she didn't catch on, and came back saying, "they didn't have any, but they gave me a bedpan!"
She's told me many other stories.
~K~
hehe, that's funny, that's like in baseball when they send you to get the key to the batting cage, or when I was in construction the guys sent me looking for skyhooks, which subsequently became my nickname "Skyhook."
Congrats stacey and i should be there to help you unpack.
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We should get you you're own funky personalized lead vest since it seems as though you will be needing one quite often ;) Wouldn't that be cool?!?!?
