Hearing and Seeing

Today we were very, very busy yet again. The census rose to about 70 patients, so our patient loads increased to 7 or 8 per student!

It was very, very challenging on my part because I had a completion duty the previous night, so I really haven’t gotten any sleep at all. I felt so tired that during the endorsement it felt like it was already the end of our shift. But I took it easy. I didn’t roam around the ward unnecessarily. I rested frequently.

In the middle of the shift I was already ready to collapse. But I endured to the very last hour.

We had a little quiz afterwards outside the ward.
