1:49 AM. Still not aslp, due to my eye irritation. The kind of feeling that there's a tiny weeny speck of dust but u just don't see it. It's been a long time since i last blogged.
I had just experienced a coroners' case just a few minutes before my knock off time. Upon the patient's death, the nurse called up to come down immediately to the ward to bill the ward charges. 17:45. Sad case. Perhaps a cardiac complication looking at the various injections he was jabbed. Underlying cause: i don't know. As much as i want to know, it might be related to some unnatural/mysterious death, or related to a crime scene, or a convict. Officers stood by to retrieve back all necessary documents as i quickly charged the patient. Ephedrine and adrenaline wiped out just for this patient. His relatives wept and slowly made their way to the exit. They had to leave him. Sedih.
My pharmacist alerted me about another patient from the same ward who seemed to not be able to pull through. I just can't forget the look in the person's eye whenever i happen to pass by the bed. Feels...eerie.
5 more days to go. I'll be back to the general wards insyaAllah bulan ramadhan. yey!

And so my training at SP2 (Satellite Pharmacy 2) which handles the 6 ICU wards started on the 1st Aug. It's been two and a half days of training with Kak Ju - alot of grey matters and alot of things to absorb, expectations to accomplish. A different setting compared to the general wards as the patients are mostly on intravenous drips and injections. So the ward stock is the opposite in other sense. And it has really, really a few times more drugs than the general ward stock. Probably intentional to avoid YOU, being caught up with supplies request...with the fact that there's only 2 pharmacists and one pharm. asst. or pharm tech there, you wouldnt want to be caught up with nurses request for drugs while your in the middle of pushing ur truck load full of IVs trolley. It's all, verbal order there. As i was browsing through the patient's med charts, bill dia......fuhyooooo. So need to be extra awake and meticulous when billing. That reminds me, i need to stock up my candy in my coat pocket.
Ooh! And for the first time, i entered a Neonatal ward - newborn babies who are given intensive care due to premature cases...and others cases. Rasanye kesian with the tubes running here and there to the petite body, and at the same time, naturally, they are cute.
Looking forward on Monday.
Extremely. Excited.
