3 more shifts
Really winding down now. Today, I went in at 7am, which I haven't done in about 10 years. As a result, I worked the front end, get folks ready for procedures (3) and then do a Cardioversion, plus a TEE. I probably hadn't started an IV in a month in a half, but nailed it first-time on the four outpatients. That last one was tough, on a person vastly fluid overloaded, and just a very tiny under-wrist vein. It worked out well (luckily), because this was needed for the push of Propofol for the cardioversion.
Later, because of the Eliquis (blood thinner) that she takes, that thing wouldn't stop bleeding when I removed it, so she went home with a beautiful bruise and a small hematoma.
Gosh, no poem this time.
