GoodBye Mrs. Collins :(

Very good week at NEMC w/ Mrs. Collins. My pt. was admitted for intractable neck pain. I started an IV w/ Mrs. Collins help, gave an IV push, SQ injection, trans dermal pain patch, and PLENTY of po meds (mostly narcotics). He is post liver transplant x 12yrs d/t a tattoo on his R inner lower leg that caused hepatitis C. The MD's only gave him 3 months to live when he was diagnosed with hepatitis C. Mrs. Collins has been a WONDERFUL instructor. I have learned a great deal from her. Today I was able to give meds w/o Mrs. Collins being on the room. I have finally mastered the computer system. Hope all had a great week!
