So! I worked a long day yesterday (Saturday) that's 07:00-19:30.
I was on the male side of a ward called AMU think it stood for Assessment Medical Unit. Where patients who are about to breach A&E are sent while waiting for a bed on the ward they need.
So I spent most of the day cleaning and changing beds! Haha
Although a long day like that really exhausts you it was an OK day, the staff were lovely and the work was quite easy.
There was a patient who's foot was completely to one side, so weird! I don't know the cause as he had difficulty explaining it to me. I can't find any pictures to show you, but imagine the bottom of your right foot facing the wall when you are standing. It really was extreme!
Hope you're all well!
