AUGUST
When I was doing a medical oncall some time ago, I somehow managed to sneak to the doctors' mess to have a bit of a rest and woke up two SHOs sleeping there - one was Ortho, the other Paeds.
Fast forward, I am that sleeping Ortho SHO now. I should put a warning sign on the door.
'If you're entering the mess past 1 am, you're waking up the Orthopaedic SHO. Please be quiet.'
Yea, you guessed it right. I just finished my first set of night oncalls as the Ortho SHO. Let's see: Did I:
1. Manage to get the Ortho Registrar out of bed because I panicked about managing a patient's fracture? Check!
2. Admit a patient who does not actually need admission? Check!
3. Admit a patient who does not actually sustained a fracture? Freaking bloody check! (In my defence, I couldn't tuft him to medics)
Oy, it's going to be a long rotation.
