Day to Day
After 38 years of bedside nursing, a back injury, I finally transferred over to a desk job. From 9:00 to 12:00, I check staff messages and carry out needed requests from said messages. Next thing is work on my hepatoma list which consists of 470 patients. Also, I cover phones or med-reviews. From 12:00 to 1:00, I call post-procedure patients from previous day. From 2:00 to 5:00, I continue with phones or med-reviews as they come in.
