Day 1: Maternity

Yuppers, today i was on the maternity ward. Haha it was a sucky place to start, cause ppl were straight up havin babies.
So the first room im supposed to go into, im just about to walk in when a nurse is like
WHOA U CANT GO IN THERE
y?
CAUSE ITS AN AIRBORN PRECAUTION
holy fuckin shit
when i learned about airborn in training, it was scary. Its supposed to be air sealed and ppl are supposed to wear masks. But here the door was wide open, i had no mask or gown, and Donna, the lady i was with, was walkin in and out.
So i had a freak out. There are supposed to be signs on the door, like really really really needs to be signs on the doors. Thats how we get in trouble. So we had to report that the nurses were not doing their jobs haha oops

And apparently the blue scrubs i wear were not acceptable on the maternity ward so they had me change into some green ones.
There were alot of really really really big pregnant ladies walkin around haha. Normally i never see such pregnant ppl on the street, i guess its because they all go to the hospital when they r about to pop???

Ya, then we went to ready the OR room cause a lady had just had a sesection....whoa it smelled so funny.
and the birthing rooms.....blood.....gah....blood. Babies are messy, i dont want any haha jk.

So it was an interesting first day.
I wonder what ill do tomorrow........
