Some updates:
The hospital I am working with is undergoing accreditation .
With surveyors coming in and out everyday, alot of things have change
Its so nice to have each bed with hand antiseptics.
So nice to see the nurses' desk neat and tidy.
So nice to see things getting done in a split of a second.
So nice to have the operator picking up the phone immediately.
But when things get done according to the book, it might not be so practical at times, ;)
Hopefully the hospital gets the credit they deserve la...
Going on to the next topic, mmm...
I got another opportunity to slice ..ehem..operate on another patient the other day.
Yeah. another appendicectomy.
This time around , it is much better , and it took lesser time too.
OT time is precious.
From one side, the anaest was crossing her arm, looking at the clock ticking. Tick tock tick tock..
Another side, the scrub nurse was repeating , " Dr ..sudah lama la.."
And my MO is also adding to the pressure by saying , "Be fast, but gentle"
Not easy...
The thing about operating on someone is that one has to take full responsibility. The patient was discharged home soon after the operation. I really hope she lives until 100. :D and not coming back for anything like...err...hernia
Anyway, I am also looking forward for another chance . Greedy me. But practise makes perfect right ?
Other than that..not much . Social life has been . NIL. (fullstop)
