Amy got some O.R. time...

Amy got to go visit an Operating Room for 2 days this week. She was 'shadowing' a CRNA in the hospital to see how the job goes and what was going on. It was arranged by the school and most of the other students are rotating through. She got to see several different and exciting surgeries and different ways to put people to sleep. She has a lot of mumbo jumbo medical terms for what they were doing, but I just say "put people to sleep".

Here is a quick map of where this hospital is in relation to the house. It is an hour and a half drive from the house. She was told to be there at 6am the first day. She got there at 5:30am and waited over 45min for someone to even let her in the building. The next day they told her not to be there until 7:00am. Much better for a girl that likes to sleep in... She only had to leave at 5:30am instead of 4:00am. A - Our House
B - Pleasant Valley Hospital at Point Pleasant, WV (right on the Ohio River)

It was a great experience for her, she was sooooo excited when she would come home to talk about all the thing she saw.
