Oh, there you are!

08 January 2011

No high to finish on.

51M - IP and depressed. The address if well known. He is usually good, clean and just a little depressed from the booze. Today he had a carving knife in his hand, he apologised and put it on the table when asked too and he was very chatty. very very chatty. He ended up getting sedated at hospital after he got a little agitated with them.

23F - Post ictal and by her own standards feeling better than she normally would. We chatted and mulled over the options and she stayed with her friends at the event.

37F - Abdo pain. Left sided, I'm going cholecystitis and so did triage.

43M - IP, rung in by a good samaritan. He was a prick and I felt sorry for the nurses.

60M - Dysuria and ? haematuria.

20F - PV haemorrhage ??? home tests indicated positive pregnancy, medical centre didn't and it may have been just a big late menstrual cycle.

88F - No injury but it's the fourth in four days and the hostel management think re-assessment is needed for upgraded care in the nursing home section of the same facility.

And that's me and ambulance work for three weeks.

Yeah sure, right. I won't be tending pts but there is still plenty of books and articles to read as well as online education and our new protocols and pharacologies.



See you at the big One.
