Changi General Hospital Attachment 24th Nov to 28th Nov
A big thank you to Raudah's father for sending us in the morning every single day (:
First day of attachment was okay. Sister Lau wasn't that scary afterall ; she's a nice person , really. Had a quick orientation of the place together with the ITE student nurses. scary okay- Halfway we went off from the group because the briefing wasn't really meant for us. Aunty Choo actually remembered us and of course, some of the student nurses there . As per last yr, we served the patients breakfast and lunch . Walked around the ward and everything . Shidah and Raudah were taking their break outside the ward, hahah and i'm like one idiot wearing the most striking colour in the ward, walking up and down doing i don't know what . Oh we got praised by Sister Lau for looking smart (: best best best ! Spent time interacting with the people in th ward and went off .
*and the very first thing she told me , he was warded in the hospital .
Day 2 was a little bit better. Breakfast served, and then i just went around the ward . Bed 21 was super noisy . and when kak nurul fed her , she stopped halfway and then the nyonya took out her gigi palsu . EEEW , and the makcik beside her was like disgusted . hah ! during lunch bed 21 went : "AUNTY , open this for me ! " i don't think i look THAT old, do i? gasak kau la nya . okay then helped that nyonya with her lunch . Fed her , and she was super acting like a baby :D Good thing her maid came at the right time . Before going off, we filled in the record book . I felt err... weird ? because i was the only red among the ite nurses in the pantry room . mak , scary . Went home, and done !
oh and someone said this to me when i said nursing was my passion:
"aku tengok kau, kalau masok nursing confirm boleh do well "
and it came from one of the ite student nurses (:
*and today, more news about him was revealed. i'm wishing that i can actually bump into him for God knows why-
Day 3 was busier than usual . Served the patients their meal and went for my usual routine, which was to just walk up and down the ward , heh. Helped the student nurses to do the parameter- blood pressure, temperature, pulse and yea . It was fun when i get to do hands on. Hakam taught me bed making . THANKS! and i guess i'm all up for nursing ? (: Learnt abit more about blood pressure and then deep vein thrombosis (DVT) . Cool facts i learnt today . and did i mention that the FIRST thing i stepped into one of the wards, bed 21 went "eh girl open this for me !" Warm greetings from her .Continued, and i know i've got alot more to learn. Went home - Tomorrow the morning shift will go to the afternoon and viceversa. How to survive?
eh ya, at the interchange this uncle was like having trouble figuring what bus to board and he was like scolding people before approaching me . After figuring out that he actually wanted to board bus 900, i showed him the way. hah ! and in the bus, this apek infront of me wanted to go to block 767 and he doesn't know where to alight. Again , i showed him the way because i was going to alight at the same stop. the best thing is, both uncles who asked me for directions looked weird and others gave them this scary look. and me? i had to assist them . How ? Potential customer service ? :P
*and i really have no answer to the question
On the contrary, day 4 was a much MUCH more fruitful experience for me. After serving the patients their breakfast, i walked around the ward and observed the student nurses do their job (: had a quick talk with Kak Ria and she told me the student nurses are actually friendly , muke je stuck up siket . hahah , alright so i plucked some courage to actually talk to them. Bed 15 had trouble eating his breakfast by himself, so the nearest to me was Abg Fareez, and i went
"bang bang bang bang !"
He turned himself one whole round before i could actually talk to him . Then, i watched the nurses do dressings on the patients .
One of the aunties needed help with the bed and all , so she was talking to me in Chinese and like obviously i was clueless. But through her actions and all, i managed to assist her la but there's this one part i din understand at all . So,
Kak Nurain: Ape dieer?
and she replied in malay =_='
so i went OHHH ingatkan aper . and the aunty looked surprised and said "you can speak malay ah ?!" and i went ya, i'm a malay. and she goes "WAH muke cine wohh!"
Doing all the work in the ward, assisting patients when they call and all , i didn't realise it was already break time. So for the first time ever, we went for a late break . kay ahh nothing to be proud of , 5 mins late je =p usually we would have gone for our breaks 15minutes earlier than the actual break time . *atikah hardworking tau !* i got myself chocoloate waffles. yummmmm!
Back to the ward, and I was with bed 21 most of the time. Walked and bed 17's turn to look surprised when i talked in malay =_=' ! He was like wah ur face look like chinese ! Banyak cantek wooh , nanti gua punya anak datang lu mari sini tau ! and he wanted to get me together with his son . wtfish? Alright then new patient at bed 22 . Assisted the doctor with the blood thing . Bedsheet got dirtied with blood, and again the nearest was abg Fareez, so i seeked help . I did bed making with him tau ! haha . kay ah nonsense, i was holding the blanket only . worked worked worked, and it was time to go home ! kay dah :D
*and i realised something else . smileeees
Last day of attachment and i feel sad to leave the ward . Normal routine in the morning but this time i fed Bed 21 her breakfast . She's going home today too ! So today, Kak Ria ikot bontot Kak Sifah, and Atikah ikot bontot Kak Ria , how cool is that ? (: EN actually asked me to help her with handling of patients. So that shows she's got confidence in letting me do some of the minor jobs . Alrighhhhhht ! Bed 24 was out of control today, i don't know why . According to the patient next to her, Bed 24 wanted her medication but the nurses refused to give her so she went in rage . Abg Zamir got hit from the back , and 2 nurses got bitten by her . Scary as it may sounds like, Abg Firdaus actually asked me to feed the patient . Cekek darah . Watched Abg Fareez do wound dressing today, and he sort of messed up ? His hands were trembling when Staff Nurse came in to check . But heng , good job abg (: Oh and i did bed making with Raudah and Shidah today ! WOW ! hah . Went for break and i got myself masala thosai today . SEDAAAAAAAAP .
Abg Zamir wanted to do parameter on Bed 24 but she seems to not like that abg . She kept on looking at his face and went berserk ? So i told abang i'll just help him take the temperature, and i did ! *claps* hah ! Okay then towards the end, took some pictures with the student nurses . Din managed to snap a shot with Abg Fareez , Abg Firdaus and Abg ________ .
Sister Lau actually checked our duty records. Omg , and luckily i managed to answer her questions about DVT . Scary - and and she said this "Woah really good leh . This one is a higher level already. good good . I see you as a future nurse (: "
AND i really hope to do VERY WELL for my course ; nursing .
*i want today's dream to come true, please ?
*and the very first thing she told me , he was warded in the hospital .
