UK Medical Center

The last 4 days have come and gone as a bit of a blur...I am now both working at my job as a tech in the ED, and am also completing synthesis as my last bit of school before graduation. I am working in the CTVU (cardiothoracic vascular unit) and learning what it's actually like to work as a nurse, before I get thrown into the real world! I just finished four 12-hour shifts in a row, meaning I have done very little besides eat, sleep and work during the last 4 days. I am ready for these next few days off to enjoy with Grant who is on spring break :)

Grant decided to wake up early and take me to the hospital one morning, and then headed to the parking lot across from UK Medical Center to practice some camera skills and try out some new camera toys he has. He got some cool shots.

The building on the right is the new part of the hospital that has been built since we have lived in Lexington and I was so excited that it actually opened while we were still here. I had all of my ICU clinicals in this part of the hospital, and the new ED is on the back side of the building, so I get to work in the awesome huge new 78 bed ED. The hospital is now HUGE, so I get a workout when I have to transfer patients to the "old" part of the hospital.

As we look forward to moving to San Diego in a few short weeks/month, I am starting to realize how much I will miss Lexington. It has been so fun attending the same university (I had graduated from BYU already before Grant really started back full time) and getting to see each other during the day as well as get to know classmates, etc.

I'm sure there will be many more photography and nostalgia posts coming soon....
