Covid overflow 20:01 - Jan 1 with 3067 viewschrismakin

Just came in for my night shift and sad to see we have taken overflow covid patients. Whilst the hospice has been set up to take some if needed it's never been the case until now :(

So whilst one floor is end of life care the other are those thankfully out of the worse but needing assistance still

Excellent.


It's been awful, mate. I' had to watch Iron Man 2 last night.

I leave movies like that with the boy to the wife. I’ve been cooking and dancing around my kitchen for two weeks solid.

Which hospice? My Sister in law works at St Elizabeth Hospice, Ipswich. They're taking Covid overflow patients. And I believe 30% or so of staff there have had or currently have Covid. Touch wood, sister-in-law has been ok so far

I'm spending it reading, playing video games, helping the old man walk his dogs, having a Marvel film re-watch and getting pissed.


Have you and fam had antigen tests? I've heard if very few people having them.

Enjoy your break.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

That sounds pretty extreme ... are you advised to do that or is it your own initiative?


Thanks for all replies

Got home an hour ago what a shift. 16 hours!!! One of my worst nights in a while. On average you may lose one person a night but last night we lost 4. Tbf a few we thought would go over Xmas but it's like they've held on until the new year.
Just had breakfast so just waiting for it to digest a bit then off to bed


I saw someone ask about separating the living quarters at home. It's more of our safety measures at home than. My wife's parents are both elderly and she's there only route to food delivery etc so we try as much as we can to limit the risk of my wife getting anything.

Did chuckle at badger. I hope you have at least a porch to change in. I've got a front door and that's it lol. Neughbours love the view I'm sure
