Out with a BANG!!!

I ended my high acuity clinical's with a BOOM! I got to the hospital at 6:45am with Heather and Mike feeling great and so excited for the day on IMCU...Its been a crazy week and before I left Heather we looked at each other and said today's going to be a great day!...well what started as a great day didn't end out to be so great! I got on the unit at 7:00am...sat down for report on the floor...got introduced to my nurse for the day...picked our patients and off we went...got to our little nook on the unit and starting getting report from the night nurse and looking up information about our patient's.....next thing I know Im on the floor with 1,000 faces standing over me and a resident trying to get me up to a wheelchair to get me to the ED! So what started as an exciting day of being a high acuity nurse actually ended as me becoming a high acuity patient...code and all!

  1. I wish I could've been in the ED so I could've taken care of you!! I wanted to come down and see you but my nurse on NCC wouldn't let me, told me I could go when I went to lunch and then by the time he let me take a lunch were home.. Hope you're feeling better!!!
