Hey SparkyPony, how's the student nurse thing going? How far into the course are you? Still enjoying it?
just so I'm not totally hijacking this thread - I reuse my needles several times, and I put the cap back on in between. Not sure that's all that interesting to anyone but there you go.
Hello you! Just coming up to the end of my first year, scary how the time has flown! Loving every single minute of it, currently on a ward for day surgeries so get to spend a lot of time in theatres and consequently treating them when they are back. Doing procedures that are normally reserved for 3rd years too. Assisted intubating a patient the other day who'd had a cardiac arrest, I was first on the scene so had to do the whole CPR and basic life support, very scary yet enthralling!
Difficult to combine with diabetes of late, mainly due to my lack of eating and consequent fear of taking too much insulin and going low, even though I'm running at 8-15 mmol/L. I'll get there though!
Hope you're ok Snodger and thanks for asking about me
