Week 4: Tuesday

Yesterday was actually pretty good. Got to treat two long term patients from the nursing floor downstairs. Both were senile but Mr. S was a cool dude. He didn't complain about anything. Mrs. S (not related) is usually a pain in the rear. She wouldn't do anything you ask her to do. However yesterday she actually responded a little. Today she feel asleep while I performed PROM on her legs and when I woke her up to get her to stand, she became a pain in the rear. She tried to bitch slap me but she was so weak it became a light tap on my chin. This afternoon, I was playing catch with Mrs. Y. next to my CI's desk because the gym was so crowded. I should've known it was a bad idea to do that so close to him but I lack common sense. My CI ignored me until Mrs. Y chucked the rubber ball at my foot, which rolled over to my CI's desk. At that point he called me over and told me the environment I set up for Mrs. Ye was unsafe. I put the ball away. It was a bad idea to begin with anyways since the gym was so crowded. Now I just have to wait for his call to my school informing them that I failed my safety criteria, which is a redflag item for the clinical internship. To be continued... ?
