When i was a student, "ACTION" is the first word that comes to my mind when i hear the word "Emergency Room". I was thinking of all the excitement, the anxiety, the hype, the unknown cases, the sirens of the ambulance, the heroic feeling and the drama in and out of the room...
The pressure and the challenge is always there even if theres no patient in the room. Just think of the number of bacteria flying around the area waiting for someone to prey on. And when patients come, they bring with them their blank diagnosis. It is a tough job especially if the health attendant is retarded. And when you are too good a retarded, you get a blood-stained bonus or a mucoid secretion. But the grand prize is a deadly contagious incurable disease.
It takes mind and body to accomplish tasks with ease. A wrong flip of the card might either take your patient's life or your own life. If only diseases can speak up. Like when patients get in, a tiny voice will say, "AIDS victim contracted 2006." Then it would be easier to make diagnosis and make plans and appropriate interventions.
The action is all set in. Time management is a very important task. To go there unprepared is a waste of time. But the tasks all become easy when you know the routines. It just takes some time. But KSA is a necesity or your dead!
