And yet another posting....

Alhamdulillah, I've passed the surgical posting without a hitch. My last day in the department I was post night shift and everything went well even though it was a very busy night and neither me nor Lovenia got any rest what with our QID reviews, new patients and emergency operations. Now that it's all over, I can honestly say that Surgery was an eye opener for me. It taught me to look at the patient as a whole, more carefully and definitely be more alert on the lookout for any signs of deterioration. The MOs in the department were so kind and I only wish that I could be like them one day. Well, it goes without saying that not everybody was nice but let's not bad talk people in this holy month! Currently in this new department - Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Most of my friends have smiled and told me I'd enjoy this department when I told them it was where I was posted next. Ummm, no. Just plain NO. Lol. I quite enjoy the work because it's actually not as complicated as Surgery, but Working with the people I work with - hell! The MOs are mostly malignant - I've only met two nice ones! And the specialists, boy do they expect a lot from us! Everyone is so high strung here, and I guess it's bedause of the high risk of legal issues. Documentation in the case notes is no joke, every thing should be written down in black and white clearly... Another night shift tonight. I hope all goes well. :)
