Night shift in the hospital on Christmas week is so delightfully boring, hahaha. It's my first time covering nights on inpatient and I was relatively nervous about it at first because it involves covering nearly 30 patients alone (well, normally alone; this is a "practice" nights week for me so I have a senior with me)... but unlike day shift, you're not generally managing actual patient care at night, you're just fielding calls from the night nurses in case they need something that an MD/DO has to order. It's also generally day team's job to be like, "Hey, we anticipate X might happen with this patient. If that happens, do Y or Z."
So far it's been a couple of shifts and they've been quite delightfully boring, which is how I like it. Come in at 6pm, take signout from the two teams we're covering, admit anywhere from 0 to 3 patients and staff them with the night attending (admissions done by 10pm, he leaves at midnight), scour the emergency department tracking shell a few times to see if we're going to have to do any admissions after that (we're required to do admissions for any residency clinic patients - so far we haven't needed to), waffle around and finish our notes until it seems like a reasonable time to get a move on, have midnight lunch, and then retire to the call rooms until our alarms ring at 5:45am and we do sign out at 6.
Throughout this, we also get calls for things like "Can this patient have a melatonin?" and follow up on anything that was pending overnight (day team usually tries to make sure we don't need to but sometimes it can't be avoided - usually it's been trending troponins or hemoglobin), and on one occasion yesterday we went to a mildly funny rapid response that occurred because someone freaked out about a patient's pre-existing neurological deficits (she was super stable; not sure what the rapid team was, like, meant to do in that situation, lol).
Anyway, I've been sleeping from somewhere between midnight and 1am until 5:45am so far which has been great. The mattress in my call room is absolutely horrific, though, lol. It's like 4 inches thick and somehow has springs in there. Better me than my senior, though - she's got the slightly nicer mattress but still gets less sleep than me because I'm pretty good at just knocking out.
Today will be my first day taking calls independently, so fingers crossed it goes as boring as yesterday! I brought a couple fancy mini-bundt cakes for me and my senior because we both deserve something for working night shift on fucking Christmas, haha.
#personal#dear diary#residency#my senior was so funny about the RRT patient...#the nurse who called it was clearly nervous but he also called us like 4 times and one time as he was hanging up#we could HEAR him go “are you still having that chest pain?” (this lady has had chest pain her whole stay it's not cardiac)#and then the last call of the night was him going and I quote “so I just happened to bladder scan her”#like bro I love your attitude and the outstanding patient care but also “IS THIS HIS ONLY PATIENT??” was an understandable reaction LOL#anyway we got her some pain meds an EKG a straight cath and unfortunately while I didn't think it was needed#some bonus radiation from a repeat CT head#she's actually an interesting patient because her stroke workup is COMPLETELY negative including MRI#and her left-sided weakness will go away if she's distracted#and she declines to perform any test that it's hard to lateralize if you DON'T have deficits (like smiling or sticking her tongue out)#so I genuinely wonder if she has like. conversion disorder.#anyway neurology is gonna see her today while I'm off so I'll take a peek at his note later and see if they're gonna consult psych

Just got a new prescription filled, and it might be the new funniest prescription packaging I've ever received (the previous winner, of course, being the time they stuck the manufacturer's bottle in a GIANT orange plastic prescription bottle)
It's a single pill, three cents, and for some reason I do not understand they put this single tiny pill in the size large (but not sized giant) prescription bottle. Absolutely ridiculous ratio of bottle to pill lol
#the person behind the yarn#three cents for a prescription is also a comically low number#but this single tiny pill in a large bottle is cracking me up#it's an anti-anxiety med because I need to get an MRI but last time I tried I panicked myself into an allergic reaction#and it's uhhhhh...tricky...to get that test done when I have a severe allergic reaction#because my main symptom of severe allergic reactions is uncontrollable vomiting#which makes it kind of impossible to lie flat on your back for an MRI#or a CT Scan! had the same thing happen with that one time#well okay I was in the hospital for a severe allergic reaction interacting very badly with the salt wasting syndrome#so it was not panic at the CT scan that caused the reaction that time#but they did expect me to magically stop puking and lie flat on my back for the scan#and I could not! which was why I was at the hospital!!#so hopefully avoiding that this time!

Just received a $12,700 hospital bill from the worst and most traumatizing ER visit of my life from last month l m f a o o o
#this was THE most neglectful and shitty hospital ive ever been to and that says a LOT.#they let me scream for 4+ hrs straight in the middle of the night and refused to give me water; only ice chips that tasted sour 🤡#anyway ofc im not paying that + they cant do a damn thing.#im just shocked and appalled at how this added up#5 grand was the ambulance ride and they didnt even put me on the goddamn gurney LMAO they just let me wail in pain on the fucking bench#the other things that rly added up were the most half-assed 'tests' and CT scans ive ever been administered#please keep in mind there were only THREE patients (i was one of them) in the ER bc it was midnight/1 AM on a Wednesday#the nurse's station was fucking BOISTEROUS with laughter though#they just let my screams echo through the halls for HOURS.#and eventually moved the poor lady next to me to another curtain partition on the other side of the room💀#i was so worried the nurses thought i was faking/crocodile tears for a while bc i very literally ran out of fluid to even cry out.#i fucking hate this system#i fucking hate this country.#thoughts

kjfghsfkgj having known someone with a rare and deadly brain disorder makes me so annoying bc every time I come across a random person having neurological symptoms (one person I saw recently had migraines that cause her to get aphasia) I want to be all up in their messages/comments like "HAVE YOU HAD A CT SCAN YOU MIGHT RANDOMLY DIE"
#I'm still convinced it's only 'rare' bc people don't test for it#and then the person dies of an aneurysm and everyone's like 'omg so random so sad'#uhhhhhh#death cw#bc like OF COURSE htey haven't had a CT scan#if they're american that costs a fortune and if they're british good fuckin luck#I get migraines and headaches and my coordination sucks and i have phases where i trip over my words#*i* haven't had a scan nor tried to get one#i just Worry about Random Strangers

hmmm a little scared for tomorrow....
#i have to get a ct scan and then i have a driving lesson and like neither thing is all that scary its just two mid-tier stressful things#back to back in one afternoon and its definitely going to use up all of my brain cells#its my last driving lesson but theyre 2 hrs long and its just a little awkward and socially draining bc like i'm socially anxious and#anxious about driving and then trying so hard to talk normally to the instructor and act normal etc#the ct scan like its for somethign that is probably nothing and at least medical stuff is usually just following directions so thats ok#also the driving lessons are a little awkward bc I’m very much ready for the test so I don’t need much instruction at all

oh I had my other ENT appointment last week and it went really really well!!!!! she prescribed me actual prescription nose spray which I haven't taken in an AGE and I'm very excited about and hope will help 🌸🌸 she does want me to get a CT scan which is not. the WORST thing. I have had my share of CT scans especially of my sinuses and I'm not like. LOOKING FORWARD to it but! it's not. terrible..........not............really..................
my last sinus one (and last CT scan at all) was in 2016 so it's, good to have another one, it's just the last time I had one done I was like. REALLY not in a great headspace and I cried the whole 15 minutes!!!! the whole!! entire!!! time!!!!!! and I did not know the technician could hear me until like. two years later and I'm still. Deeply Embarrassed About It All. ANYWAY I SHOULDN'T CRY THIS TIME, HOPEFULLY
#i don't super like being flat on my back that's. a big part#but! it's very short. not bad at all.#could be an MRI! hate an MRI!!! don't get one if you can avoid it!!!!!!#the best medical test is an ultrasound. 100%. at least for me. relatively chill!#although. it does depend on the body part.........#i have had a few Not A Good Time ultrasounds.#meanwhile --#me at 5 finding out the ct scan doesn't involve cats even if everyone says CAT scan: ???????? 😭😭😭#i still think. they should put. cat ears on the donut

How Does Ultrasound Scan in Accra Work?
An ultrasound scan is a widely used medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create visual images of the inside of the body. This non-invasive and safe procedure is commonly performed for various reasons, from diagnosing health conditions to monitoring pregnancy. If you're in Accra and looking to understand more about ultrasound scans, especially for pregnancy, this guide will walk you through the process, the different types of scans available, and why Sunshine Healthcare Ltd is the best choice for your ultrasound needs.
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/bdd46464d1c680a4b1977f98cdb40369/2484f0b70eb245c5-6c/s250x250_c1/cbd7f4316e433b68b9fffafdabf07bf1d23822ee.jpg)
What Is an Ultrasound Scan?
An ultrasound scan uses sound waves that are too high-pitched for the human ear to hear. These sound waves are transmitted through the body via a probe, and when they bounce off tissues and organs, they create images that can be seen on a screen. This imaging method is incredibly useful in diagnosing a variety of medical conditions, including issues with organs, blood vessels, and even monitoring the development of a fetus during pregnancy.
Types of Ultrasound Scans Available in Accra
At Sunshine Healthcare Ltd, we provide different types of ultrasound scans to cater to various medical needs:
Abdominal Ultrasound Scan: Used to examine the organs in the abdomen such as the liver, kidneys, and bladder.
Pelvic Ultrasound Scan: Commonly performed to examine the bladder, ovaries, and uterus.
Obstetric Ultrasound Scan: This includes Pregnancy scan in Accra and is used to monitor the progress and development of a pregnancy.
Cardiac Ultrasound (Echocardiogram): Helps assess the health and function of the heart.
How Does an Ultrasound Scan Work in Accra?
Preparation: Depending on the type of ultrasound, you may need to follow certain instructions. For example, if you’re having an abdominal scan, you might be asked to fast for a few hours before the procedure.
During the Scan: A gel is applied to the area being scanned. This gel helps the sound waves travel through the skin. The ultrasound probe, which is a small handheld device, is then moved over the area. It emits high-frequency sound waves and captures the returning echoes.
Results: The images are instantly displayed on a screen for the technician to analyze. These images are often recorded and sent to your doctor, who will interpret the results.
Pregnancy Scan in Accra: A Vital Tool for Expecting Mothers
A pregnancy scan in Accra is essential for monitoring the health and development of the fetus throughout the pregnancy. At Sunshine Healthcare Ltd, we provide comprehensive obstetric ultrasound services to ensure that both mother and baby are well cared for.
Early Pregnancy Scan: Usually done within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy to confirm the pregnancy, check for fetal heartbeats, and estimate the due date.
Anatomy Scan: Performed around 18-22 weeks, it provides a detailed view of the baby’s organs and growth.
Growth and Wellbeing Scan: Conducted in the third trimester to ensure that the baby is growing well and check for any potential complications.
Why Choose Sunshine Healthcare Ltd for Ultrasound Scan in Accra?
State-of-the-art Equipment: We use the latest ultrasound technology to ensure high-quality, clear images for accurate diagnosis.
Experienced Staff: Our certified ultrasound technicians are highly skilled and committed to providing you with a comfortable experience.
