My first day alone

My very first day on the floor without my supervisor. Training is over. Woo hoo. Not a whole lot happened today, nothing terribly interesting. I had several baths to do, and I did them. Had a very nice conversation with one of our residents, talking about school, his daughters, and such.


One of our residents had a very nasty skin irritation between her buttocks. I was the first person to see it, and I had to fill out a report on it, and treat it with some ointment. Poor girl also had a nasty rash. It all looked pretty itchy, tender, and painful. As I filled out the report, and gave it to my supervisor, she was impressed by my vocabulary and articulation. YAY! I'm getting noticed!


No funny stories today though. Maybe next time.
