Sad To Say I Was Proved Correct!
Well hopefully I wasn't really!
As I told you I was working Saturday afternoon/evening on Main Reception. Part of the job is finding what wards patients are on, or just confirming they haven't been moved. In an 850 bed building that can mean a lot of extra walking for the visitors! Brilliant ... well it was until the last 90minutes or so. We had a new "complete" system that links everything together ... and although I love computers (Hee, what am I typing on?), I was always sceptical that there would be problems. Well, that last 90 minutes was a nightmare as I couldn't help people as to where their relatives were.
However, what bothers me is how do treatments etc work when you can't actually get hold of notes, as everything is on the computer now.
So, call me old-fashioned but I really do not like it!

Rant over!
I have a great day yesterday - and there will be photos to share at some point. Christine came up and we did some sight-seeing in and around Exeter. It was lovely weather, and we walked about 5 miles overall ... so good fun, and good for the calories (although we did finish the day off with cake!
This morning clinic went well, and shopping done ... now I am here posting this. I hope to get some photos done and posted today but can't guarantee it.
But before I get on with that -
20. Do you hold grudges? Are you holding one now?
As I am fairly quick tempers I tend not to hold a grudge.
21. June 21 is "International Yoga Day". Do you do, or have you ever done, yoga?
No .... But more important than yoga, today is
INTERNATIONAL GIRAFFE DAY
Right, photos are calling ... see you later x
