First day of placement


I was f-king late on the first day because of the stupid train. Well, i missed my train.

But the orientation was great... just needed to get my chest x-ray done and blood test because it was too long ago that I had my vacinnation.

So case type: I totally thought I was going to do outpatient geriatrics. It ends up to be Geriatrics inpatient.

Therefore, I am pretty screwed because I did not have my mind set to geriatrics inpatients. I should have brought my notes from Queen Mary Hospital, those were very very useful. Damnit.

Otherwise, the working environment is actually very friendly. My clinical educators are very very nice. At least they didn't yell at me when I was late on the first day.

Will have more explosure tomorrow in the ward and stuff because we actually work closely with other allied health, including OTs. Allied health is named as health disciplines here.

I am exposed to the very important coffee shops in the hospital. Pretty sure I will rely on them for survival LOL.

Will update more when I know more.
