My new favorite thing...

Medication Book
Yeah, I know it's a bad picture. But, the green tab which is pulled out reads, "Doctors Orders, Routine." This is the medication book on my unit, and it's where we write all of the medication orders. Anytime I, or the attending, write an order, we pull this tab up to let the nurses know there's something new to do. Since I've become a big fan of writing medication orders, I've also become a big fan of pulling up this tab...seems very doctor-like. Yup...it's the simple things in life that make me happy. Why is writing orders my favorite thing? Mostly because it's the only thing I've done so far that I couldn't have done before this year of med school. Psych is not exactly packed full of procedures to do.
