Today Cathy from Maximo Nivel came and she could explain a lot better than me about my skills, so i have been quite busy today, giving injections both intra muscular and intra venously and assisting with wound care. Today we even got an acute patient who needed to go to the hospital.
The Clinic has emergency where the patients come after they see the doctor to get their injections or for wound care, even in the emergency comes patients from the street who need acute care. Fractures and bigger problems go directly to the hospital. It even has obstetrics and ultrasound, taking care of expecting mothers. Pediatrics, general medicin and a lab. Its very interesting to see how everything works.
I am struggeling with the language but i am determened to become exelente in spanish.

I bought a membership for a local gym yesterday and let me tell you that working out at this hight is not as easy as at home. After 5 minutes on the crosstrainer my pulse was up to 200 so i just hit the machines and weights instead. I was so tired last night i think i passed out around 10.

Duglega þú, ekki nóg með að þú sért að ströggla í "háloftum" þá skellir þú þér í ræktina, alltaf sama harkan í þér :o)

Það er æðislegt að lesa bloggið þitt, manni langar ekkert smá að koma til þín og upplifa þetta með þér.

Meira að segja ég, sem er nú ekki spítalamenntuð, sé á skrifum þínum að þetta er nú eitthvað annað en við norðurlandabúar eigum að venjast, en til þess var ferðin farin ekki satt, til að læra og fræðast um annara manna störf.

Gangi þér rosalega vel í spænskunnu, kann eina setningu og læt hana fljóta með

Hastala vista ...... beibe :o)(sagt á mjög vélrænan en dramatískan hátt)

Rúna

Gumman! Tänk hur det kommer bli när du ommer hem!! Du kommer vara som dopad och stå på crosstrainern i timmavis!
Det är du och eliten som tränar höghöjdsträning.
Kram! Josefin
