I know I have been slacking on updating this! My last day at Thorntonview was two days ago. It was so sad to leave all of the residents and even staff. A few of the other nurses and psw's told me that I could use them as a reference to get a job there! Awesome! Also, I started my other placement yesterday at Marnwood retirement home. There are only 12 residents there, about four men and the rest ladies! It is such a different feeling, retirement is more housework. I guess it's a relaxing change ;) haha. Although, a man had to be rushed to the hospital while we were there. His blood sugar was too high, so I went out and got the ambulance and showed them where to go. He came back near the end of the night and was better. Thank goodness. We spent about an hour and a half playing cards with the ladies before we headed home. Too bad those two days I was explaining about I was feeling like crap! Achyness, headache, sorethroat - everything! I am suppose to be at my second day of placement today, but instead I am in bed with Strep throat and tonsillitis. Ugh. This is the only day I can miss, so I need to get myself better!
