random observation. dont feel like elaborating. or writing clearly. ill just cross my fingers and hope i understand what it all means if i ever look over these notes again.
1. around here, u dont get xtra pay for being fluent in a 2nd language. in fact, it's almost expected. weird. must be a wage theory 101 oversupply thing. ie, enought potential applicants with this ability (or few enough positions available), that a premium doesn't have to be paid. im interested in learning a bunch of extra languages, but only at the most non-intesive, non-rushed pace. a financial incentve would prbly be just the thing to push me to take it from an on-off hobby into striving for fluency. oh well.
2. intermittent pain for medical pts. if its not getting progressively worse, sometimes all u can do is wait and see.
3. 2/3 of pts i worked with today were RNs orfamily members of pts here today.
4. observed the whole pre-op checklist thing. wonder why i never witnessed this after a whole semester of medsurg1 at the other program even though i was 1. at a much larger hospital and 2. got to watch actual procedures. we were even taught this checklist pre-procedure thing during the fundamentals class here....but never once at the other program even after a handful of clinicals class.
