on call

Now,here's how my last 24hour on-call went on Medicine Floor.
-It began early morning with the congestive heart failure patient having severe breathing difficulties.*huff puff!!there i went prescribing nebulizers & ordering ABGs and running from my counter to his bedside every 5 mins.
-Afternoon visiting hours gave us a fist fight between two relatives who were visiting.Had to bring up hospital security for that and had to send down the injured to the ER.*arrghhhh!!! and i was busy seeing patients on the upper floor.
-The resident ordered a set of ABGs for so many patients and forced diuresis for that many and in the end no one collected the urine after the forced diuresis drips were over even after careful repeated instructions by me and the resident.*bangs my head in frustration!
-The resident realized that we have a patient who needs a change of dressing of her leg ulcer at 2am in the morning and wants to call the surgical department.*how inefficient!
