Sharon's job

Good morning. I am Sharon. I am 26 years old. I am a nurse, and I work at a hospital in Manchester. I get up very early in the morning because my shift starts at 6 a.m. But I have to be there about 15 minutes earlier because I have to change into my uniform. I have to make sure that it is spotless. Before I leave for the hospital, I take a shower and have a big breakfast. I can’t work without a substantial breakfast because my job demands all my force. Then I take the bus to go to the hospital. My job is sometimes very difficult. We have a lot of very ill people who suffer a lot. When I start my day, I make my first round. If the patient is in very bad shape, the first thing I do is check the vital signs. Then I measure the fever, and if it is high, I send a message to the doctor and wait for medication. If everything is okay, I give the patients their medication, and if they can’t get up, I wash them and change the bedding. Although I do not have much time, I chat a bit with the patients because some of them are very lonely, and my role is to reassure them. At the end of the day, we have meetings with the doctors and the nutritionist in order to optimize the patient’s comfort. It is a job with a lot of responsibility. Sometimes, the patient’s life depends on my decision. But I love it. When someone is healed after a dangerous illness, I know that I am part of the cure.
