#circulating nurse

[operatingroomnurse]

this is exactly me in the corner of the room, when my charting is done, the trash is changed, the room is clean, and my work area is organized. And I’ve checked my email thrice. And I’ve run out of things to do other than actually watch the surgery.

when you’re sitting at the circulator desk just charting away and you hear instruments start clattering and a raised voice

don’t get me wrong i LOVE the operating room but i do miss the floor and that sense of autonomy i felt there. i’m heavily debating picking up a casual job on the side to get that feeling back. i still miss some aspects of caring for patients and being that ‘primary’ care giver that they see most frequently out of everyone on their team and getting to know them and take care of them. circulating and scrubbing is important but i miss being more hands-on with the patients. i’m even considering being a medic right now. i just want to be able to do everything and know as much as i can from med-surg to ICU, ED to OR. I’m still not ruling out trying to get to medical school as my graduate degree as opposed to a higher level nursing degree. hopefully once i’m off orientation and figure out what i want i can do everything i decide i want out of this career.
