the doctors out, but i know something!

So this post is mostly going to be pictures from our Honeymoon/Vacation, We went up to Acadia National Park in Bar Harbor for the week. We stayed on the "quiet side" in Southwest Harbor. It was nice to have a solid week away after we've been working so much and planning the wedding. I'm sure I'll post wedding pictures when we get them.  The Cottage we stayed at all week. The car guardian was happy to go to Acadia too! Please don't try to watch the whole park loop now. It's 30 minutes long! but our random commentary is always nice to listen to! Rated PG-13 for language! So we had a great week! We're home now and working on getting our Apartment in living order, Writing thank you cards for the multitude of gifts we got from everyone, and continuing to "get married." Only 79 years and 51 weeks to go!

So myself and a fellow redditor Irunongames  have started working on a mobile electronic Patient care report app, but we want it to be much, much more then that. It works for Pt transfers and Pt charts, the end result is a serious under taking but would be awesome if it worked. So for now give us some feed back! Loading...

So I live in a state fortunate enough to have digital run reports (I'm sure some angry old medics are just waiting to troll me right now.) However, I don't see a point at the moment. I don't see why the local ER's are using EMR ether. I mean it would be really cool if we actually utilized it ... Unfortunately we don't. everyday medic have to print out their report using 2-5 pages of paper, then they fax it to the ER using another  2-5 pages of paper! That doesn't include the 2 page quick report we have to leave the hospital. Then we have cardiac monitors to worry about! those things will spit out 2-3 feet of readings if you don't watch them.  I do a lot of patient transfers at the moment. (It isn't all that fun but it pays the bills and that's good enough for now.) When you do a transfer especially a Phych transfer you always need three things. The Patient, hardest one to forget. However sometimes they don't wanna go and try to run the othe...

Well, not really. I deleted my Facebook. I got hacked and was posting spam, so i killed it! now I'm just posting to Google+, Twitter, and Tumblr. I can't access Tumblr at work though. Which is were I spend most of my waking hours. I'm looking for people to follow/follow me on Google+ and twitter. If you want me to follow you or add you to a circle just comment with a username! I recently started following this guy on twitter and he's freaking hilarious. He's made the #DearPatient tag awesome. # DearPatient   You lie to me, you get prescriptions for placebos. Do it again, you get Ipecac. And a Narcan Patch. Troll.  ~ RealEDdoc In other news, It's shark week on discovery! and Philip DeFranco is hosting! Go internet! Well, That's all I got...

Starting out the day. Moving a full size bed up a narrow set of stairs, around a corner, out the door on a op of the van get to rigged to the top, driven a mile down the road, carried up another set of stair, another tight corner and finally to the bed room... Before: After: Realizing we aren't even close to done. Well, we aren't really done yet. But.... we're close enough to live in it!

So Eliza and I just signed the lease for our new apartment! We've started slowing migrating our stuff there. At the moment we have about five laundry baskets, a little table, a magic bullet and a kitchen-aid mixer... that's it. We are planning a "BIG" move for Saturday. I've gotta talk to a few people about borrowing trucks to move a couch, bed, and dresser. After that we should be moved in! now I have to go write a list of people that need to get notified of my address change. The list is quickly getting longer now that I've got a job, licenses, and other misc. issues. Here's some phone pictures.

it's now coming to the end of July. I've put in over 600 hundred hours for delta since mid may. I've been talking to the medics about skills and assessment. I've been getting my fare share of hands on practice moving Pts, dealing with issues, paperwork, documentation. All that fun stuff. So now I've got to start trying to get cleared for ALS.  Now, I know HIPPA is a legit thing so I can't talk about patients. However. I do know I'm not gaining or refining skills bringing people to alcohol detox. Don't get me wrong. I love my job! Even if it's something stupid I'm still helping people a hell of a lot more then selling donuts and coffee. However, the basic truck is getting monotonous . I am gonna shoot for just one ALS shift every so often like one every week or two, but I honestly think I'm ready. Am I? No. Its just like driving. It doesn't matter how long you study or how many times you talk about it, all that matters is what you do behin...
