What a day. It’s awful on the inside. I had all COVID patients today and they are rebuilding my unit to be the COVID unit. I got kicked off my unit because they are restructuring the whole thing. Making the nurses station enclosed. The nurses are beyond stressed. One was crying. They are being lose with guideline. I now sit with the next person 6 inches away from me. A young patient is dying. He is an NP who came into contact with positive patients. I don’t think he’s going to make it.
All these patients are on hydroxychloroquine/azythromycin some got approval for the use of another another anti viral. They are using HIV antivirals.
All I can say it’s different on the inside. Very different. And really scary. I’m exhausted and stressed and feel so bad for those giving direct care. I bought our floor lunch today. They needed a pick me up. I wanted to hug them, but I can’t.
I am actually emotionally spent. Back to work tomorrow. I don’t have a day off until next Saturday .
I am still thankful to have a job I go to every day. But I think the truth is I will probably get this. I am probably a carrier. I just pray I don’t pass it to anyone else
