After finishing my first week of the second rotation, I almost can't describe how much happier I am here. And "here" is a Psychiatric Hospital. XD
What it really comes down to is having an organized preceptor. Each week she has me reviewing patient charts based on specific disease states. Like last week it was patients with depression, and this coming week is patients with bipolar disorder. Also, I do a longish write up on the disease state each week.
So I not only feel that I'm actually learning things/refreshing my memory here, but my time is way better spent. I also work on specific projects - like making write-ups on the different flu vaccines that I have to present to the psychiatrists next week. Goodbye, boring-ass paper filing and standing around! The experience is really almost like night and day.
It doesn't hurt that I'm done by around 2:30 each day. :D I'll definitely be sad to see this rotation go (unlike Nuclear Pharmacy).
I still enjoy the place I'm renting, though I'm thinking of bringing a few more toys back with me. I miss having them around. I ordered the Star Trek dolls during the Barbie Dream Sale for super cheap, so it'll be nice when they show up. But now there's free shipping at Pullip Style too! I'd so order one if I hadn't just made the other sizable order. :(
Though I don't know if I'll be able to stop myself with those new Disney Fairies dolls. They have Terence, and Vidia!
