PGY1D8 – Weekend Warriors

It’s crazy the difference 2 people make in the workflow of our team. Then again it’s also crazy how easily the rest of the team is able to pick of the slack. Today also was pretty busy because we were down 2 people (it was their day off), but busy is good, it makes the day go by faster and I get to see more interesting stuff. That said there are definitely task that I don’t look forward to, or times when I don’t want to be perceived doing the things I need to do (talking to patient, calling consults) it in almost all cases I have either a senior or someone else right next to me whether they are actively engaged in my conversation or not. Anyways overall, this has been a pretty nice way to transition into this new role in the hospital. I get a lot of model examples of what the work should look like and can easily determine whether or not I am meeting a certain standard, while also being in a safe space for mistakes and stupid questions, because here lots of people have my back.
