hi, my work situation seems better....i was in charge of a ward yesterday, id worked on the ward the day before, then the next day i was left to run it and it was brill! i had to do 10 things at once and be tuned in at all time...brill... fantastic shift i was told by the staff nurse when i was going home,....praise indeed! you should have 2 staff on the ward at all time but i was on my own...ward round was going on and they were down some staff i think so i was left to run this particular ward with 10 patients on my own....it has renewed my faith in the job and myself. i had to keep on top of all the patients notes i had to do handover on my own[which was slightly daunting, but i did it] i had to do obs, make sure breakfast and lunch was sorted, motivate patients to get up and take meds...sort any problem...listen to the patients,,,[this ward is a sort of rehab...some will go into sheltered housing after ...mainly paranoid schitzophrenics....my spelling is terrible sorry.sort out ground leave and any visitors...i loved it...no other staff...bliss!
