I had a blog post partially written out, but decided to delete it.
Friday was the second most miserable experience thus far in residency. Admitting 20 newborns to NICU-Transition NICU & newborn wards, attending 10 deliveries, getting called about other newborns on other wards... (all between 5pm and 7:30am).
Did I make it through the night. Of Course.
Do I think I made any bad judgments. No
Did I get the IVs. Almost all
Did I get the blood draws. Some of them (poor average, disappointing)
Was I as thorough as I would have been back home. No way.
I suspect this will be a quiet month for blogging about my experiences. I'm hesitant in that I want to be fair in my posting, and that right now I'm a bit critical of this rotation.
