Getting out of TP!

Phew, I'll be glad when this week is over. Too much work and lots of tricky stuff, today was day 5 of a 7 day stretch :(. This morning I shoved the girls out of the hospital and off to school just as an ambulance arrived with a very poorly chap (who'd arrested in transit) and required the immediate attention of some health professionals. Happily there were some health professionals on hand...I was working with the exceptional Barb, Jacinta stayed on after her night shift and Early Shirley joined the party a bit later on. There was also an authority in wound care (yours truly) but sadly Mr Cardiac Event had no wounds that needed expert attention. I felt very inadequate and very grateful for the expertise in the resus room. Oh for the security of a tertiary hospital!!!
On call last night and called in to transfer an abdo pain (?peritonitis) to the airport for RFDS to Port Hedland. Fabulous and friendly flight nurse who invited me up the steps to take photies inside the plane. Only had m'iphone with me so poor quality (need a mk IV!!), but here I am in an RFDS ambulance:

Cockpit!!!

Here's Esther on the swings today waiting for Freya to finish gymnastics:
