Lia works in the Labor and Delivery unit at the hospital. When we tutored together on Tuesday, she told me she was working Thursday and that I should see if I can shadow her. Here she is using the Pyxis, which is basically a vending machine for medications and supplies.

Lia was working as a Mentor today, which means she doesn't have any patients of her own, but runs around and helps everyone else with deliveries. I was excited about this because it meant I would probably get to see a lot, but this wasn't the case. It was a pretty slow day. As I was leaving, she showed me the computer screen with all the laboring women. "Too bad you're not going to be here around 4 o'clock. Shit is going to get crazy."
