After only 3 days of hospital orientation, I am positively sure that working in the hospital wing is not for me.
I just can’t understand why, even if it’s only a 24-bed hospital facility wing, that there’s only 1 RN on duty! I mean, the RN will take charge of the whole hospital wing which includes the OPD patients and the ER patients! I guess, the set-up is ok if you have a doctor there at the ER, but NO doctors around! You either have to call them in the clinic or at home!
The LPN’s will mostly do all the work with their assigned patients like what nurses do in the Philippines (eg. vital signs and meds except IV meds) but still…
RN’s here are charge nurses. I have to be very honest that I don’t think I’m ready to be a charge nurse this soon. Adjusting to the set-up, names of their medications, not to mention their culture is already hard enough.
I’m not an ER nurse. So yeah, I don’t like the hospital wing.
