It's the little things...

So during this level, our clinicals have been your traditional 12-hour shift, complete with paperwork on all patients. We're there to get report at 0645 and don't leave until we give report to the night shift. In prior levels, we always leave early on our last clinical rotation. I assumed that since we're report-to-report now, that wouldn't be the case. I was so happy to find out this afternoon that not only do we not have to do ANY paperwork for our last MedSurg clinical tomorrow but we will, in fact, be leaving early. It's amazing how something so small can make your ENTIRE day! So tomorrow is my last "official" Medsurg clinical ever before graduating, though technically I have a make-up clinical next week to make up for my eye drama last week (see "The Alien has Landed"). Then SPRING BREAK and on to Pedi which is a nice quiet way to finish the program. 73 days...9 more Mondays.
