New Sem's Posting, New Challenge, New Preceptors!

We knew everything is a new start for us,
As Sem 2 posting is a challenge
with New types of skills, and procedure to do,
New Clinical Supervisor
New preceptors to be cooperating wif,
New Wards are assigned,
New Way of going to TSH,
Everything is SO new,
But the place and the foods ther are still the same...
Therefore, we already expected that there might be changes...
there might be new difficult situation..
but then in our heart we were thinking that since it is the same place as our old TSH, there should not be much of a problem..
However it's outcome is much more worse..
The Worse thing is that we jus finished 1st wk and so many problems evolved...
How are we gonna settle them all?
i am a bit afraid..
Things might get even worse in the upcoming weeks..

Firstly,
We are assigned to 4 wards..
There are only 2 preceptors..
There is 7A,7B,6B,8B
It is easier for 7A&7B, as there are in the same floor
but for 6B, and 8B, as the ward number says, it is in two separate floor, 6th floor and 8th floor
whereby the other preceptor is in charge with had to run up and down
Let's name them PA, PB respectively
Okay, I am in ward 8B
the FIRST class ward..
what a great responsibility we gonna have
and also very free,
cos not much patient are able to pay for such high cost room
Due to we are in the first class ward,
there are limitations, to wat we can do
We need to speak quietly,
do things wif permissions
EVERYTHING NEED TO BE DONE TACTFULLY!!!
I am very " dan xiao" person,
so i do not approached a patient unless, after a day i meet the person,
when they are sleeping, i usually dare not wan to disturb them, cos usually patient that stays in the ward, cannot sleep well at night and had many diseases within them cause them to have many other unpleasant symptoms that makes them very tired
So i will not appraoched them jus because i wan to practice my assessment skills on them which is due on next week
But my other frens are so anxious of practising, that they approached every patient that come to their sight, i was like " SO good and hardworking, i envy, cos i am shy until only a few of my assignment done" but after that i was like , okay Valerie u are way too back of others, u must work hard to overcome the shyness..
but then i observed that although they are practising and at the same time caring for patient but some little things u guys have missed out, that might cause little discomfort, or lost trust in IMU
I didn't wan to mention names cos i might make same mistake next time...
This part is jus to remind Not to cos there are already evidences...
Like today one patient also complain that those inconsiderate nurse should be send back to training, 1st class ward's nurse should not be opening doors so many times and sometimes didn't even close the door, causing her cannot sleep
We also had another fuzzy client, that only wan to have SISTER to attend to her..
So "da PAI"
Cheh
Even If u are another ward's SISTER one relative also should not like that mah...
U said don't wan change linen at night, u said u wan to sleep...
then we don't disturb u lor..
When we don't disturb u, u say we don't care u,
when we care u, u say we are not competent..
hello?!
Who are u to say us like that...
we are doing our job to the best,
to give u the best care..
no matter who the patient is,
even KING also receive the treatment equally as U..
Other patients are very educated until we very headache,
They keep on rushing on something that need to wait, and lots of questions from them,
in other words they expect a lot from us in the 1st class ward...

Secondly,
One of our preceptors got angry of us being rude to her..
which may lead to an outcome that she might quits anytime..
which is OMG for us
But i actually not really sure y she had to be very angry about the issue
and had to report to our higher authority, where we will have much MORE problems
I agree that we might be rude in the sense that one of our frens raised up her voice to make a suggestion...
PB should not have take it seriously,
as that was a discussion meeting of TWO way FEEDBACK (actually i didn't think that it is a good idea at the first place to have it but anyway)
Anyone can suggest anything right..
i think at moment PB wasn't noticing my fren raising up her to give suggestion for 3 times..
So she stand up and say loudly "her disagreement that her idea is nt that good, we should try other way instead of that"
maybe the tone also have some anger in it
which cause her to be angry but we are intended to apologize to her on monday.. but during her day-off's she complain to our higher authority in charge which caused the problem to be "IRREVERSIBLE"
HAI~
Next week, if she didn't appear, we'll be doom..
Good luck 6B and 8B
although most of the time she is not in my ward due to not much procedure,
WE CANNOT HAVE NO PRECEPTORS>>
WE CANNOT DO ANYTHING

Thirdly,
I heard that PA's sytle of management is a bit harsh..
There are good and bad to it..
Let's talk about her background..
She is senior of 7a's SISTER,
She knew the other preceptor in the ward, cos they are ex teacher and student relationship...
it means that she had respect in the ward due to the relationship..
She kinda of misuse it
and usually she had a sarcastic tone, i think she jus joking around la.. not serous but then others heard it will think that it is harsh...
NO one in the ward dare to comment in front of her,
the staff all scared of her..
last time i work in 7A b4, so we meet some staff along the way,
She say "Hey,ur new CI so GARANG eh, i only say HI to ur fren, she thinks i scold him, She scolded me lagi'
Last time, we had a lot of scolding in 7A, cos some staff nurse there quite bad tempered..
but due to our new CI they dare not scold IMU students and let them do procedures...
that is a good thing..
My frens there can do lots of procedures..
But then, i heard of my fren,
she did dressing..
then the doctor saw it, saying that it was not i ordered.. but it is a better way, he changed his notes,
but then the staff nurse twisted the doctor's words..
saying that " IMU nurse didn't follow orders, the doctor is not happy with the dressing, nvm la, i'll tell the SISTER"
In the end , She get scolding from SISTER herself as well as PA..
It is some sort of revenge lor..

Fourthly, i had one unlucky event but that is unavoidable and not as serious as above.. so i am not going to mention it...
I really had a very EVENTful WEEK
Hope it don't get worse..

P.s I really miss our old PRECEPTORS, they won't let this kind of things happen...
