My day consist of evaluating patients brought from cruelty and neglect situations. After evaluating, I determine what needs to be done to stabilize the patient until a Doctor can come in. This usually entailed starting IV obtaining bloodwork and radiographs. Also starting what meds were needed, possibly starting on re-feeding charts.
