First week of the internship at the neurological station at the rehabilitation center in Bad Liebenstein is over. Not gonna lie, the first 3 days were hard. I felt like a complete idiot there. Lots of tracheostoma, wounds, blood tests and other profound medical work. Since yesterday, I worked at something called the "Überwachungsraum" where the patients are constantly monitored 24/7. There's lots of information there and I already had lots of impressions crammed into the first week... I'm really exhausted but I know that I can learn a lot there.
There's downsides too. A few of the nurses over there have a holier than thou attitude and think everyone who works in a nursing home is a failure. There are others however who are really helpful and explain lots of things, including a few of the doctors. Our room we got over there is the same size as the patients rooms are, with the exception that we live as two people over there instead of having a room for each of us. On the other hand, this prevents us from feeling lonely as we always have someone to talk about what we experienced throughout the day. And the beds are awful... I never thought that I'd already sleep in a care bed (similar to a hospital bed) that creaks every time when I turn around at age 29, but here we are. My back and neck will be really grateful for my own bed for two nights now, but this helps me to appreciate what I have.
All in all, my shaves are quite uninspired and disappointing during the week. I had to buy a tub of Speick cream and will bring my Proraso Wood&Spice cream when I return on Sunday evening to not become crazy due to the monotony. Fancy SOTDs will be reserved for the weekends now. But I'll do everything for my future career 💪🏻
