Life as a nightshifter vampire
Sleeping in the daytime:
Leaf-blowers, helicopters, and garbage trucks = sleep enemies.
Blackout curtains, a good fan, and A/C = sleep friends.
Audiobooks>Ambien. Eyes are closed, daytime noise and distracting thoughts are drowned out. Currently listening to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
Staying awake at night:
Coffee does NOTHING.
Super...

Hmm…twice I’ve shot off angry concerned emails to the LA Times for posting health/health care reform articles with misleading titles/info, and 2/2 have been changed. Is somebody actually listening to my little voice?
Chew on this: “Violence is present when human beings are being influenced so that their actual somatic and mental realizations are below their potential realization…when an actor is present who commits the violence, this is personal or direct violence. In contrast, structural violence is indirect because it lacks an actor…the violence is built into the social structure and is...

Oh, sweet Jesus. If I hear another person say the US has the “best health care system in the world” I’m going to explode. We pay more than double what every other industrialized country pays for health care and our health outcomes aren’t any better. We pride ourselves on being the best country in the world yet we are perfectly ok with leaving our children, elders, and...

Thank you for sharing this.
(via jenkim03) Definite read/see. Made me teary at the end. Beautiful.
That was unbelievably touching. It reminds me of my grandfather who had Alzheimer’s. I honestly can’t imagine a life without my parents. I don’t know what I would do.
Thanks for sharing. *sniffles* Beautiful reminder to notice the little things and cherish the time we have...

Dear Grey’s Anatomy (and media in general),
Please stop degrading nurses. We hear those one-liners, those snide little remarks. Excuse me, but I’m not laughing.
At the rate we’re going, the sad truth is that you’re all likely going to end up in the hospital at some point in time. And when that day comes, we will be directly responsible for your life for 12 hours at a...

I love love LOVE the night before a new rotation. Do I dread having to get up at the buttcrack of dawn? Always. Will I ever feel I’ve prepped enough? Probably not. But damn do I love the anticipation of diving into a new unit headfirst. Seriously. It’s hard for me to sit still right now.
I’ll be working in the Stroke Center at Cedars for awhile. Neuro + cardio + telemtry + tons...
