Responsibility comes at a stake. Despite my minimal patient load, I catch myself thinking about my patients all the time, regardless of how stable or unstable their condition is. I worry excessively and always anticipate the worst outcome. What if she spikes a fever? What if he requires intubation? What if his hyperglycemia is not controlled? What if it is malignancy?
This has got to stop.
There is always someone on-call if someone takes a bad turn. Besides I do not have the ability to cure anyone, I am only the means to it. He who cures them is with them all the time, even when I am not around.
