30 minutes before going home

- bismillah -

It was a saturday working day. So basically we get the busiest in the morning but more relax in the evening. I worked with team of 4 for a ward, so it was very managable alhamdulillah. Tracing finished as early as before 12, so did blood cm forms which settled before 3 i guess. There was 1 aor discharge, 2 new admissions and transfer in, and every other thing was just in place. We were able to eat a good proper lunch (at 5pm plus).

Until at 630pm, 30 mins before punch out... A patient became unstable.

Cpr with crash intubation until 40 mins, but the patient didnt survive. After settling all the death documentations, we went home at 830pm, sweating, tired, sleepy, and hungry (again)...

So that's basically my life. I think i can go at 7pm sharp, but my patient is my priority.

Anyway alhamdulillah all works settled before that event. Otherwise, would have to settle all ward works before going home.

8th month of housemanship

- bismillah -

Alhamdulillah. Less than 15 days left for me in medical department. Things are never can be expected, some days are hectic that i went home at midnight, while some other days i can even sleep while awaiting the time to punch out 😆😆😆

So i just choose to be grateful. I am grateful for my busy days and even more grateful that i know Allah is with me helping me to settle the works... Especially when managing a whole ward alone. Pheww. La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah. I truly incapable except with the help of Him.

And ironically, on a calm day, i easily feel sleepy. Everything runs slowly. Haha.

Anyway, i am grateful for both my busy and calm days.

My most hectic oncall was one with few new admissions, new peri referal, unstable patients in main ward, scheduled blood taking of dengue patients, etc.

Last time was my second most hectic oncall. 10 (TEN) new admissions in two wards. Basically have to run here and there in between admissions and rounds. There's one asystole patient in peri ward, so went there for cpr and eventually LO (death) documentation. I eventually managed to take blood for morning orders at 8am onwards. Omg. Able to take fasting bloods at 7am but then the oncall mo still wanted to do round 😂😂😂 i cursed the ticking clock in my heart.. Not the mo hahahaha (he was just doing his job riteee)

And above all, i am grateful that Allah make me able to pray... That is the biggest blessing in any day whether hectic or calm one.... Alhamdulillah

I started to be grateful of time

Thank you Allah for my life and career you choose for me.

May my life ends well in His blessing.
Amiin.
