Busy Night / myLot

Now just say on my break but my goodness tonight was too busy. I didn't even stop even once. Everything is beeping and patients are extra clingy and fussy this evening. But on a happy note time goes quicker.

You must be a nurse. Sounds like you have a hospital full of patients. How many have covid? My sisters family have just gotten over it. None were hospitalized.

@askme123 it's the call bells of patient calling and the machines in the hospital.

It is. Sometimes patients can be so demanding.

If I were being honest there are days when I really do. And there are days when I don't.

@Kandae11 I know sometimes I don't feel like I'm treated as one.

I'm sure the time does pass faster when you are going from one thing to another all the time. I hope the patients were able to settle down so everyone could get some rest.
