My mentor is on leave for two weeks now, and so far this week I have worked with three different midwives, which is ok, and I know it will happen.
But, the midwife I worked with yesterday said I needed some continuity, and suggested I change my shifts so I could work with her. So I changed today's shift from an early to a late, and tomorrow's late to an early so that I can work with her.
I have just checked the bus times, and I can't get a bus early enough to get me to the hospital for my shift. I have two options as I see it, be late for my shift and finish later to make the time up, letting her know today (I hate being late for anything) or, I get a taxi and be on time, the only drawback with this is it would cost me about £18 which I can't really afford.
My children obviously want to come and see me tomorrow, and I have already changed the arrangements once due to my shift change, so don't want to mess them about either, oh, I am in a mess
Any suggestions would be most welcome.
