Oh god.
Day 1 - arrived , was told to wear scrubs. Donned scrubs. Bit overwhelmed, very technical, alarms, dials, ventilator volumes, jargon.
Day 2 - Met mentor. He's lovely. Explains most things and I try to keep in as much as possible.
Today - Day 3 - Totally overwhelmed. New person to work with who asked me many questions that I didn't know the answer to. Totally mortified. Still don't know what half of the ventilator settings are, but apparently as a 2nd year not expected to know the setting meaning just the possible problems of mechanically assisted ventilation. Can't find anything online really. Got some but still feel a bit lost. Can't find way around the store cupboard, the names on the packets are completely different to what staff are asking me for.
Reprimanded for wearing scrubs. Am supposed to be in uniform. Explain was told to wear scrubs. That over... ach do you know what? Moan. I'm tired, I feel completely out my depth and a bit overwhelmed. I know that if you do you're supposed to say that its a bit much, so I do then I just feel like a total tool.
Ah well, it can only get better. Aye?
