The past week is a horrible week.
Not only that we are facing the stress from the external audit
, it is a horrible way to start as well as to end.
, it is a horrible way to start as well as to end.On Monday we have had a bad case and should I say that I am lucky enough that I was not on duty because the day shift staff only managed to go home at 11pm. Imagine working from 7am to 11pm. OMG.
They did what they could including turning the ICU into a operating theatre because they can't afford to move the patient to anywhere.
I thought the audit is over and that is it.
Who knows on Saturday another bad case, and they code the patient at about 1907hrs, just after we started handing over and we had the annoucement
, they wanted me to run alone but Suyan was worried so she came along with me.
, they wanted me to run alone but Suyan was worried so she came along with me.It was supposed to be an "ok" code as in when we were there the patient was stable, responsive to call and stuff but the principle doctor wanted her to be in ICU.
Who knows the moment after we transfer her and change her the patient collapsed.
And this is the very first time I have seen a real live defib.
Everyone was running around for something
so as to stablize the patient so that we could transfer her.
so as to stablize the patient so that we could transfer her.And, just as we thought everything was done...
The patient collapsed again.
I ended up knocking off at 2110hrs.
Almost couldn't make it home, I was just so tired and I was walking on the road with my eyes that could bearly open
... Now then I thought of it, I should have taken a cab home instead.

Tomorrow is work for me again and this coming week I have to work 5 days instead of the usual 3 or 4 
because there is not enough staff.
