In Patient Hospital attachment...




~~ Group 5 ~~


Everyone was asking... "Do yours get paid for your attachment? " ... ... Money is important... but the value of it... sometimes... we had overestimated it.. ... truthly, everyone need money to survive... but at the end of the day... when I was involved in unpaid attachment... I felt satisfied.. glad to be having the chance to expose to the working field where I would be in the coming future...


5 days of in-patient unit attachment... sounding a bit short... but when we made used of every moment we spent there... I did learn.. ... Talking about learning... actually... learning started from a simple heart... sometimes... certain things seemed like easy... but when you were doing.. it turned out to be a different story.. ... to be in a new work place... humble to learn... asked whenever doubt arised.. The hand-on experience gained... was precious to me... ...


Day 1 of mine was stationed in DD- dangerous drug section... day 2-screening the prescription and packaging the drug... although the job was just as simple as one's thought of taking the drug from the rack.. but it needed speed... at the very beginning... I was slow like a snail... bombarded by all the drugs here n there... but late in the evening... (^^)... showed improvement in my speed... Never looked down on the diploma students from mahsa college and uitm who were attached there with us too... they were familiar to their work and I learned a lot from them too... thank to the hearty for them... ...


Day3- IPC and sterile complex.. getting some stories from previous grp saying that they'l ask question during this section.. *Loll*... the previous night... I revised the slides and did some on9 searching... the biggest gift I received on that that day was we met with Mei, who was in charge in sterile complex... at the beginning, she looked fierce.. but she was "soft" actually... admiring her physic theories.. Plz.. dont get shocked when I told you that their cleaning process was based on physic theory... she told us some stories before we left... the case where death took place... who to be blamed for... theirs... who did thankless job...


"Your hand can kill and save".. "be responsible and be alert all the time"... in fact.. they were not sounding easy and simple.. ... i gotta to have a depth sense of something... residing in my heart there.. ... She gave me another stimulation and maturity... I loved her tough way of conveying truth... short talk that ran deep into the heart... woww, at the end, I thought she "restructured" "bit" of our attitude.. Dont you think so, my groupmates? Her words were influencial...


Day4- TDM.. having the chance to go to lab while delivering test tube of patient's blood who was on TDM drug... "AhaH"... it was what that learned during last 2 semester... Clinical pharmacokinetic... that came to play its role... ... knowledge and application were one chunk of it... but experience to adjust the dose was of utmost "green button" to save a patient's life... what was calculated sometimes was not applicable.. ... seriously, it needed experience.. ...


In the evening, ward round to distribute the dangerous drug to ward's counter... it would be my first time to find out how Menara Timur and Menara Utama's ward looked like although I had been studied in um there for the past 3 years... emm... it was not too late to know... right? station by station, we stopped at CICU-cardiac intensive care unit.. it was where i met with a young baby, ran urgently for a surgery... due to heart bleeding... And seeing other patients in the wards there...


That particular night after the ward round, it strengthened my mind... maybe I was not a great people... but I just hope to be able to take care of all the people around me, remind them to stay health and help them whenever I can within my limit... Health is the biggest wealth...


Day5- methadone section... never thought that government had launched this methadone programme for the drug addict... purpose of harm reduction... and that day, I met with the drug addicts who came over the counter and collect their methadone.. Although half of the day was hectic, non-stop meeting the drug addicts and involving in recording their record and diluting the methadone, but indirectly, it was like a good deed helping them to suppress the withdrawal effect... I could detect... some were determined to stop drug.. hopefully, they could make themselve a new life.. n the rest of us (society), dont give up too in giving them hope... Forgiving their past... giving chance for them to turn over a new leaf if they were willing too...


I felt tired at the first two days of attachment... as standing from morning till evening... but the following day, getting used to it... future working life will be similar to that situation... perhaps tired... busy... or ... Anyway, as what Mei said, job satisfaction was the main source of energy that drive someone to work passionately...


Earning money is not that easy... but it is like a gift of life to have chance to dive in noble job... be it a noble... life-saving... satisfaction... or other else... all depend on how one's hope to be... ...


It was a weekend... rest and relax... (>.<) before another round in out-patient attachment on next week ... and everyone... wishing yours to stay healthy all the times.. ... ...
