Pulmonary and Orthopedics!!

Today we had orientation for our Med-Surg clinicals. Last semester I was on the Progressive Cardiac Unit and the Diabetic Renal Medical Unit. This semester I will be on the Pulmonary Unit (evening shift) and then at the end of the semester I will be on the Orthopedic Unit (day shift).

(Doesn't that sound like fun?!) :]

I am SO excited to be on different units this semester! My first Pulmonary clinical is next Friday! My clinical instructor mentioned that we will be taking care of a lot of ventilators, NG tubes, IV/PCA pumps and oxygen therapy. I look forward to learning more about the Pulmonary Unit!
