Personal Narrative-A Day In The Emergency Room

I felt that there was naught one right way of writing for me and some people naturally adapted to being proficient writers. Regardless of what I tried there are always errors in my writings. I have always loved perfecting things so you can see why this very much aggravated my routine. This experience almost made me fear writing because it had been like a puzzle that I could never solve.

When I first started going to Terra State Community College I was an eighteen-year-old with two jobs and ambition towards the medical field. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I began my first semester by taking very broad classes so that I could use them towards any career. I remember looking up different career paths that I could possibly take through Terra and weighing my options. I then came across medical assisting, a truly perfect career for me. I met with my advisor and set up a visit with Mrs. Hopkins, and as soon as I sat down with her, I knew this is what I wanted to do. This field allowed me to do everything that I could of imagine wanting to do within the medical field.

According to Cullington, “texting has a minimal effect on student writing” (367). Cullington, explains that students are very conscious about text-messaging and that they will never combine informal writing into formal writing because they believe that text-messaging with friends is not the same as writing an important paper in school. Nonetheless, Cullington states that Dennis Baron,an English and linguistics professor at the University of Illinois, “suggest students do not even use abbreviations in their text messages very often” (368). Cullington also emphasizes that another English teacher argues that “despite texting, her students formal writing remains solid”

My first week went really well! I was definately both nervous and excited on the first day. I was nervous because I wasn't sure how the clinic would run and I quickly learned that it is a very fast paced clinic. My CI sees patients every 15 minutes and he is both the only PT there and the owner of the clinic. I have been learning a lot about PT treatments as well as the buisness side of the PT clinic. He has a lot of PT aides that help with exercises and setting patients up with ice and stim ect. The fast paced clinic was definately something I had to get used to. I was a little overwhelmed when we would just start with a patient and a new patient would walk in the door. However, there is a very good flow in the clinic and everyone is always

I applaud you for being an emergency room nurse and being attentive enough to be able to catch a potential complication for the patient. My husband had an anaphylactic reaction to Morphine after a knee surgery several years ago. Recently, my husband went to an emergency room with chest pain and diaphoresis. The admission clerk immediately took my husband immediately took my husband back and alerted the nurse. The facility he went to is one my husband that has all of his current history which included his allergy. The nurse obtained lab, an electrocardiogram, and ordered a chest x-ray. She then informed the doctor of my husband’s status. The nurse then brought a syringe full of medication and nitroglycerin to my husband’s bedside. She gave my

I knew the instant the sirens began to scream from the firehouse across the street that those were for him. Emergency workers begin arriving from every direction. All gathered to prepare for the terrible accident that had just been announced on the scanner.

On Thursday June 14, 2017, I had to return a page from the emergency room (ER) doctor for and admit. When I returned the page the ER doctor wanted to admit a patient with stage 4 brain cancer that was a DNR for hospice care. I told the ER doctor that this was not an appropriate because this patient needed and wanted hospice care and that the hospitalist did not need to be involved. The ER doctor proceeded to tell me that I don’t want to do my job and I need to admit the patient so he could get the care that he needed. When he told me that over the phone I almost lost my cool and professionalism in a matter of seconds. I hung up the phone and walked down to the ER. I went into the patient room and spoke to the family members and they told me

I am most familiar with the Urgent Medical Center. In my opinion, it is very well-structured place with a diverse staffing. It was always a pleasant environment when I had to visit the center for an illness. The center has at least two physicians and nurses on-site at all time. Also, there are several medical assistants to help provide quality of care as patient wait to be seen by a physician. This organization promotes health and wellness services to all patients. Theirs mission is to provide an affordable, quality healthcare with respect and compassion to all patients. The urgent medical center mainly focuses on treating common illness and non-life-threatening injuries. One thing that they do not have on-site is an equipment for diagnostic,

I earned 14 hours for service for this activity. I continued working in my shift in the ICU. In the ICU, the main jobs are refilling the drawers in the not occupied rooms and ensuring that the supply closets are full. Sometimes, I clear the storage unit, that contains towels, sheets, pillow cases, and rags, from yarn. The yarn is used to tie the a stack of linen together and they are usually all over the place. If I get the chance, I throw out the excess yarn and untie the stacks. When I was doing this, a nurse thanked me because everyone is so busy and does not have time to clean up the yarn. I continued to do my jobs, but towards the end of my shift, I begin to become tired. I developed time efficient system that allowed me to maximize the

My wrists burned terribly and the stinging pain seemed to rivet through my entire body. I didn't mind it though,it gave me a sense of being alive, a sense of that somewhere in the midst of this all, I'm still human and even thought I feel dead, I know I'm not.

There are many monumental events that have occurred in my life, but the incident that left me paralyzed and partial blind was the turning point.

In high school, I would always have to fix my essay a good couple of times and there would be a lot of mistakes that I would have to fix. Which would make me frustrated because I would have to fix all of the paper. After working on some of the writing assignments that were assigned to us in class, I noticed

Oh my sweetness, You always make my heart flutter... I enjoy our chat as well. Thanks for sharing with me, and I'm sorry once again... How was your weekend? I hope you had a wonderful one with your cute kids? My weekend is long and busy, today is my day off, but there is an emergency, and I'm recommended to work at the emergency Department; I hope I don't work late tonight. Despite my busy schedule, you never leave my heart. Time runs fast, and I'm patiently waiting to finish work and feel you next to me. I'm excited to have you in my world. I can't wait to meet you in person. You're incessantly on my mind

Today was my first day in the Paramedics department. I shadow EMTs tech today, his name was tom. Everyone in the Department was very welcoming and they were glad to have PFE student over in their department. Tom, showed me the truck and the different kinds of bags they have in the truck for different kinds of patients, he told me that they get 30 calls each day, and about 1400 calls a year. He asked me about what I want to be and we talked a little about the career I want to be pursued in. He told me when they are free, they go to wawa to get coffee, they took to me to the wawa and they were nice enough to ask me if I want anything but I simply said Thanks. We came back to the unit and then waited for call but we did not get any call.While

Especially, if I am having a writer’s block moment, I use the acronym to make sure I have hit all the high point and have all the things I need content-wise for my paragraph to be complete. Among some of the rules, I was taught in high school to never use second or first person POV, being conversational is not something I want to have in my writing, and to not use the same sentence structure consecutively. This is why I was so hesitant to write my first assignment for this class; it was difficult because it seems whatever I was taught to do in those English classes are the opposite of what this class wants me to do.
