what a first day :)

1 minute read time.

Well i am shattered but i feel so good ,i knew this job had been given to me for a reason, it just feels so right, like its meant to be,

I started on surgical ward today ,apparantly one of the hardest wards ,but i dont dont care i love hard work,  most of patients are post mastectomy, reconstruction ect, lots having chemo and radiotherapy , and i loved it, they were all quite happy to let me do their obs ect and care even though im not actually allowed till ive completed next 2 weeks

I think for someone whos been through what i have it could have been very difficult emotionally , but it wasnt i felt such empathy and do you know what ,just to make those such poorly patients smile ,just made me feel so good , it feels so right and i cant wait for my next shift which is on medical ward ,i also got some great feedback form other staff too which was nice ,

Most of all i feel like my confidence is back , im me again and i know ju would be so proud of me ,he wanted me to be happy again, and im def getting their .

  I know all shifts wont be like that but just to see those smiling faces well its all worthwhile,  and do you know what a smile and a bit of tlc is all most patients wish for in hospital , and i will always strive to do that ,

love and hugs to all xxxx

    Really pleased you had a good day on the ward. As Claire says, having a smiling happy nurse / carer really does make the patient experience better. I'm sure you are just brilliant at it.
