I don't know about you, but I hate change. Actually, that's not completely true. Let's call it more of a love/hate relationship. I like the excitement of new and different things, but I'm also a creature of comfort and habits. So tonight is my first night at the new Children's hospital. We've been anticipating this move for awhile. It's an absolutely beautiful hospital. REALLY spiffy. The thing is, not only has my space changed - my unit has changed. I am now working with a different population of patients and a new team. Can anyone say "fish out of water"? I went to visit my 36 peeps on their new floor - I literally almost cried. Not that everyone on my new unit has been AMAZING!!!! I am super lucky to have a GREAT team to work with. Everyone has been super welcoming and nice!! I just know my 36 peeps and the patients. I was super happy when my charge told me I would be admitting a 5 week old with respiratory issues. It was like going "home".
All and all it was a good night. Lots of asking "where is..." or "has anyone seen..." Just change and I don't seem to get along very often. So come Friday, when I'm back for my next shift - let the growing pains continue.
