After the Holiday

Today was the "after the holiday" mess at work.  Chemo cannot wait, and, just cuz it's a holiday, one still needs to get their treatment.  Soooo, we doubled up today.  Those that were supposed to get treated yesterday, came today.  And those that were supposed to come today, did, as well.  omg, chaos and stress were rampant.  No orders, no charts, walk-ins, etc.  The pharmacy was so backed up that people that had waited over an hour for a chair then had to wait for their chemo.  Growly patients, irritable nurses, doctors, well, we won't say about the doctors.  Protocol nurses???  I had a lot of hate for one in particular today.  "I'll be there in 10 minutes with her order."  Well, I was too busy to check, and I never saw her.  Finally, someone walked up to me with the orders in her hand.  WTF?  Where did you find those?  In the back room on the table.  Chaos. 

I actually got out on time (almost) and now I am at home in my cave.  Wonder what my boys are up to.......
