Back In The Saddle Again
I have finally felt good about my job. It was certainly adjustment from the past fifteen years at Reid . Going from boss, to staff therapist was quite an adjustment.Especially at this stage of my life. I don't know if it was an ego thing or a confidence thing, but I'm okay now.
I suppose I had a preconceived notion of PRN staff. They really don't have a commitment to the job. I wasn't sure if I could actually do what I used to do clinically, when I was young. But I can. I wasn't sure if I could still draw a blood gas, well I can. I wasn't sure if I could handle a code -blue, well it came back.. And if a doctor yelled at me , well it happened, I'm okay. And I forgot why I really got into healthcare....the patients. I loved working with patients and family members and making them feel better. And I forgot that I was good.
A lady that works at the hospital came up to me and told me her baby was doing well, and I asked her why she didn't tell me when I was treating her child that she worked at the hospital, she said she didn't have to say that. She got wonderful care without telling us.I made me feel so good. So, right now, I like my job.
