Ward 18!
Woot! I like my ward!
Ok on the first day of attachment, everything was mainly orientation. Since I slept at 1+ in the morning the night before, I was almost out of energy trying to keep myself awake. So the orientation, yada, yada, yada. I saw the mortuary but didn't get to see the dead people. They were wrapped up in a white sheet already. So cool.
Finally, we got to our wards. I'm with Mel. When we first stepped into the ward, the ITE students talked to us. They were super friendly and very nice people. There was Kiwi who talked to us first. He's a very active, funny, friendly guy. Then there were Danyl, Helelina, Ayu, and two others whose names didn't pass my sensory memory. But I'll find out. They were all nice. Answered all my questions and asked about us too. Anyway yesterday, we didn't really do anything.
But today, came at 6.30 in the morning. Super early right, I know. I guess Danyl was in the same bus as me cuz I saw him walking in to the hospital too. So I greeted him, talked to him and went up with him to sign in. The whole day I was with him. He's like my very young mentor. He's super nice and friendly and answers all my questions and shows me how to do stuff for the patients like changing the diapers, bathing, SMU, making the bed and a lot of other stuff. It was fun doing with him. I like him. He's a nice companion. Ooh and he can speak and understand Malay quite well. Very well for a chinese. He's interesting. It's great to be in his team. The rest of the staff was nice too. I like Richard, the clinical assistant, i think. He's cool and funny.
What a day! I love it! So sad that Danyl will be in the afternoon shift after tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get all my skills signed under 'Competent'.
