Sunday July 22nd, 2007

Good morning, folks! It's Sunday already, and that 3-11 went pretty well yesterday. Just like riding a bike-you never forget the shift. I hope today's shift goes as well. Still gotta be in early tomorrow; yuck!

Cass, sending you hugs in case I don't see ya around later. MICU, I understand about the shifts. We gotta do what we gotta do. Pop in when you can.

The weather is pretty devent right now, but is supposed to get downright hot by Tuesday or Wednesday. I really think rain is needed more....NOT a gully washer, but a nice gentle rain. How's the weather out your ways?

'Cat'

I got low census until 3 I have to call back at 2 to see if I have to come in 3-7....going to take a nap in a few minutes, mom said she's ok to stay at the hospital right now...they had to turn bed alarms on last night he was still playing the up and down game.

We have one or two bed alarms in use. Had to d/c bed rails due to the 'restraint' bit. No matter that someone can roll out of bed and injure themselves. Blah.

Good luck in catching some nap time.

turns out the reason the bed alarm was finally turned on was dad got out of bed and sat on the floor. Mom had dozed off and he snuck out. I did get called off so went up to the hospital he wasn't up and down as much today and now has TPN going (my suggestion) and was able to transfer a little better still not good but better.
