I did cut myself. Yes, I cut across my index finger right on the it's fold! And what had cut it? An ampule.
I have been good opening ampules at our Rle days when I was in college. I have a strong hand and I cut then
Easily. Before I use my own hands with the help of my white uniform specially if we don't have the cutter in the ward. But my history of good openings got caught up last night.
We had a patient with acute gastritis and we were about to admit her when
She backed out and preferred to
Go home instead. We prepared the papers fast but we ended up cutting them to serve as scratch paper!!
The doctor ordered medicines to be given TIV. Went to help my senior. She can't open the other one so I offered my help. I was confident I can open it what I'm scared of is I might crush the whole ampule so I asked how much does it cost. Then I used the cover of a syringe. Ready, set, go!! Tada~ it's open but when I'm about to hand the medicine, I saw drops of blood on the table! Oh no!! Oh yes!!! I cut my finger!!! I immediately went to the wash area to wash my finger. I thought it was just an abrasion and then I started to feel the sting! It was so painful and shockingly bleeds fast! The bleeding doesn't stop and I was able to use 4 cotton balls and 3 2x2 gauze to stop the bleeding!
Yes, I was so stupid! I created another mistake and it's my second day of duty!! Oh crap!!! I'm do embarrassed to what had happened and to what have I done. Babo!!!!
I'm thankful for the staff for being so caring to me. Of course I know they're mad but I'm grateful for what they did to me.
I'm sorry for being such a mess!!! I'll try my best to work hard and grow up!!
Please be careful in opening Meds in ampules. The medicines might be needed stat but still you need to protect yourself first.
Now, I'm suffering because I get a hard time using my right hand. It's so painful kahit konting sagi Lang! Rar!!!
Please be careful next time, Jo!!!! Fighting!!!
