Btw, are there obstretric nurses, because you have midwives and doctors, HCAs too I guess. But what would obstretric nurses do?

Not AFAIK - midwives do most of the nursey jobs (a lot of them are also qualified nurses). Addies has MCAs (Maternity Care Assistants) instead of HCAs, but I don't know if that's universal. They do pretty much the same stuff anyway. And the medical students make the tea and toast. :wink:

In answer to Muse's question, I've done Paeds, O&G and Psych for my 5th year rotations so far. I'm going back to NRO - Neurology, Rheumatology and Orthopaedics. And revision for scary bastard Pathology finals in June :s:

Mwaha! I am back!

From where?

OP

Happy new year!

I'm really not finding the motivation to write a bloody long essay and revise for exams. :frown:

Speaking of which, before Christmas I was practicing an OSCE-esque cardiorespiratory exam on one of my mates and I'd left my curtains open. Strangely enough, examining the neck for lymphadenopathy while learning over with a stethoscope around my neck towards a half naked male came as a bit of a surprise to the passing commuters.

Note to self: Move.

Middle of nowhere, Ireland as it happens.

I'll never forget my (non-medic) flatmate's face when he came in to discover my other flatmate lying on the floor, practising a hip examination on herself, while I was examining one of the chairs. He thought we had got some new weird twisted form of yoga going on, though with less lycra.

Fun fun. I've just got back from Norfolk. Shropshire seems positively urbanised.

It was boozy at least. Drink of the week - Baby Guinness (double tia maria with a baileys top).

Cement Mixer

* 2/3 shot of Baileys
* 1/3 shot of Rosa's lime juice or cranberry juice

* Make sure not to mix them, but let the juice sit in a layer on top of the Baileys
* Then have the drinker swish their head around. What happens is that when the Bailey's and Lime/Cranberry Juice mix in their mouth they congeal into a nice thick cement-like substance, hence the name.

In your sick perverse dreams!! :eek:
