Yesterday, had a bad day at work... 5/8/2008
12am on the bed, discovered that i forgot to report an anomality for a scan i did, wondering if Dr noticed and reported it himself... think think think.... fall asleep
=(6.12am woke up before the alarm clock screamed.. wanted to have more sleep, but had to wak up for work! =(
6.45am had a light breakfast and walked to work in foggy freezing morning...
=(8am Checked on the report i missed the day b4, Dr had reported. But not sure if he reported the anomality or not, have to ask him when he come in to work. Told JM about the trouble i created. Sorry for giving her problem again bcoz of my carelessness.
=(8.30am Double checked with Dr, He really did not report on that coz i did not mention on my report. Asked me some medical related questions related to tat abnormality, then said, "ok, no problem, i'll report it". I apologized for my mistake. He is nice, still can smile. Sorry, again...
=(9am Started my 1st pregnancy scan (17-22 weeks scan) of the day, special request in referral form : sex determination of the baby. As usual, do a morphology scan. Scanning half way, being called out of the scan room by supervisor, asking me, Did u read the referral form ? Do u know this scan is not "Medi care" (health policy rebate provided by Aus government) compliant? Means the patient cant get rebate for a reason of scanning like this, she has to pay. what if after scan, she not happy and not paying ? "DID U READ THE FORM B4 GO INTO THE ROOM?" comes into my ear again and again...YES I DID, just careless again vt the Medi care thingy... Have to clarify vt the patient she had to pay, she was OK with it...I knew i made a mistake again for this mafan Medi Care thingy... i hate it!!
=(12.30am Another pregnancy scan, In all scannings, what a sonographer scared of always is when he/she has to scan a fat flabby tummy patient. Maybe, today is my bad day, so every bad thing must fall on me. Yes, this patient had a flabby tummy, Hmm.... 3-4cm thickness of fat tummy, mobile. Can actually ask for the patient's help to lift up the fat layer hold it for me when i was scanning. LOL... and she did... But i was still struggling with the scan, trying my best to get some pictures. What running in my mind was "Lunch time is approaching, If u wanna ask for someone's help, better do it fast.". At the end, asked for JM's help to complete the scan. Very disappointed on myself for my ability in handling/scanning all these fat fat patients. Why u cant get the image while other people can get it ? Is it u are not working hard enough ? Is it u are useless ?
=(After lunch, assisted Dr in a few biopsy procedures. Nothing special happened.
After work, attended a General Meeting of the company, to know more about the company...
And the bad day was not ended easily. Maybe with the stress i got the whole morning, I suffered migraine after work. Headache, no mood for food, chilling night...
What a bad day. I hate myself for being careless, careless, and careless. I'm not a perfectionist, i just expect myself to at least be more careful at work, do everything right, not creating trouble to others, otho some might say learn from mistake... NONO, in this line,
no room for mistakes.
Hmm... so, i have to be a perfectionist ?
Today, I'm having Day OFF, having a good rest at home. Have to start doing some studies...
Tomorrow, another day. I hope it would be a good day !
Hope everyone has a good day everyday..
