The day after.

I ate too much, drank too much, but feel just fine this morning. The cabbage and beer will probably be kicking in around 9 - 10 o'clock. That should be fun! Passing medications today so it should be a decent day. The only problem will be that I'll be working with one RN doing patient care. Nothing against RNs, but here they don't do much. I'll most likely have to do meds and do most of the patient care as well.

It's just as I thought, she's going around setting up everyone who can do for themselves. I'll be doing all of the total care patients. Looks like it's going to be one of those days. We seem to have many of "those days" here. I guess that's what you get for working for the government. They don't use their LPNs as they should (at least at this facility). We are only utilized as nurses aids. Then we are constantly told that we are not nurses. It drives us crazy that they will say "the nurses and LPNs are to......."

I'm done complaining about work for now. I'll write more later.

In a bit.
