Have They Checked The Clocks?

Slow day today. I had a whopping total of 3 patients. What the hay? Something ain't right here.

My day consisted of the following patients:
  • a nosebleed
  • a migraine
  • a fall down go boom
I felt like the day would never end. Every time I looked at the clock it was only ten AM - and it stayed 10AM until I finally went home at 5PM. Ever have one of those days? It just refused to move any faster. I did get a lot of QI analysis done on the trauma charts. Yeehaw. I know how much you all care.

Oh! I did get in a debate about pain control with one of our docs. Thaaaaaat was an interesting conversation. Hoooboy. Seems we have differing opinions there, such as I think people who hurt should get pain medicine and he doesn't.

Anyway, back home now wasting time on line.

Is that doctor English? I think most of the doctors over here don't give a damn about patients in pain.
