I was really pleased by the turn out of my shift. Although it was pretty toxic, I managed to rise above the occasion. One of the toughest parts of my duty was starting an IV line to a patient who’s due for coronary angiogram. Being in the pit for almost three months already, the staff nurses are expecting me to manage simple IV insertion tasks considering that I am a certified IV therapy nurse. In single attempt, I was able to get through the vein successfully. As I emerged from the patients room, the bedside nurse told me that the IV line of my other patient has gotten out of the vein. He tried repositioning and pushing saline but there was resistance. I also tried that same but it was a failure. I had no choice I had to reinsert. It was a success.
I noticed though that my eyes were getting dry then making me uncomfortable during the IV insertions. I guess the best eye cream could help my eyes relax. I need them to be in best shape at all times.
