resting at home

decided to take MC and rest at home....... been having this dry and irritation cough almost a week and failed to make it goes away.. the ever kind Family GP ask me to take 2 days off as he think i need lots of rest, most probably seeing my dark eyes ring from my recent nights duty and frequent cough at nights that disrupt my sleeps!!!

guess the Augmentin is working well as i am coughing less at night and starting to gain back my voice and not the hoarse sound anymore...... pity ones of my patient's grandson that have to listen extremely carefully during his orientation as mine voice was hoarse and soft... lucky he was a patience man...

is so truth that when one is down the the true friend and enemy will show up...... the people that truly care and simply can't wait to step over our head is showed up immediately

Thanks GOD and i simply understand that i need to see all this my myself and with my own eyes and ears

the choice is up to me

have not been writing in here for long time, guess the time was spend doing games-online.

afterall, here is the best place for me to pour out my what i wanted to say and no one know who am i!

few months ago i was been ask to take up a promotion to another ward... which i don't mind as i know i will be working under a nurse manager who don't take nonsense and only fully committed to patients care, which lots of people can't take her no-nonsense-method of work but not me..... which i quite ok with it

the plan was change and i was ask to go to another ward, ortho GW, which actually i don't really mind also as i already made up my mind to ask for out as i don't really work the best under current nurse manager... her leadership skill is not up to my previous manager and she is too emotional when come to make decisions and when she regret her decisions, scapegoats were been identified except herself!

her way of informing the transferring was really annoy me and i felt that she really can't agreed more to sent me out as i am one of her thorns in ICU and yet she need my seniority over the shifts when she or other clinician is not available...

to be honest i really love and enjoy nursing ICU patients and the complex of the condition and the personal satisfaction when patient is successfully weaned off inotropic and ventilation... felt great! is priceless achievement

i did have a few talks with the important peoples in my life regarding the decision of so called "promotion".... my mum, my best friend and my mentor

mum is more on my happiness which is most important as she have see what i been thru when i was in Resp ward and relationship broke off... her advice no point to stay on in ICU as the manager will still be there... maybe the new ward will bring more to me... never know what GOD have plan for me...

best friend suggest me take up the promotion as i deserve as i am over due for it... she also think leaving to a new place is good for myself and more can be learn than stay on in ICU... new environment might be stressful for first 6 months but after that is ok..

mentor think is good to move out and move up if i still want to stay on in nursing as everyone need to progress and life is always full of "stones" on the paths, depending me to jump over, walk beside it or change path.. is also important for me to find happiness in work too! otherwise going to work will be really misery and poison the soul!

anyway, i have make up my mind to give up the promotion and stay on ICU for the last year and after that to move out..... i don't really think can really have a year here but i just have to enjoy the days and concentrate on what i enjoy the most and don't take things for granted of what i have..

i believe with the constant quality of my works is the most important

the day that i stop caring is the day i must leave nursing

as long as i still enjoy the it, i should continue to take up different challenges in nursing including supervisory in GW and not in ICU setting
