Working in the ED is very overwhelming. the pace is fast. people are ill. the clock is ticking (damn the 4 hour rule). your brain seems to be perpectually zooming. the only time you don't think is when you are standing in front of the coffee machine..and order tea instead?!
doubled with the fact that your sleep is disrupted cos you sleep weird hours, chase the clock due to your shift times and there is now no such thing as a weekend makes people who work in the ED very very very very very very tired indeed. God give me strength.
I guess the good thing is that patients are still commenting on how smiley i am...although they still think i'm a nurse, for aren't all females who wear scrubs all nurses? chuckles. 1 patient said to my male nurse "oh doctor, that was such a lovely nurse" ?!!!?? - i did introduce myself btw.
