Hello there, today is Sunday, the day you can’t buy liquor. The day everyone goes to church. The day that almost everything is closed. A well known day off for most. Except for me. I am waking up at 5pm on this fine sunny day. To leave in 30 minutes to drive to a hospital. I’m downtown. I walk in. Clock in. And go to the break room for shift update. After all the Nurses get their assignments, we all march out to the Intensive care unit. Take out assignments and get report. The only odd ball out. Is the Tech. The tech helps with so much. They are considered a resource. They help Bath, they turn, they drop off meds, they make the charts. Check the vitals constantly, they watch vital lines, Help code people, go to any overhead emergency, they can sit and be the person to talk to when you e just tried to commit suicide, they float around the hospital, they pick up patients, drop off patients, pass ice, pick up the food trays, take out trash, stalk the POU’s, empty shipped supplies, stalk the line carts, stalk the heart box, answer call lights, assist with audits, fax, copy, walk to the bathroom, stalk the bedside carts, supply the med room with supplies, walk around the unit, clean the break room, organize the equipment storage, organizing the supply storage, clean all the dirty cords, retrieve transfer beds, pack up patient belongings to ensure they aren’t lost, they answer ever call for help, and so much more Nurses disrespect those lower because “they have the right” but without the tech their, the nurses job would be a million times harder. Respect those below you.
