something never change...

It had been many years since my housemanship, but I still shivered thinking of doing rounds with some “big-gun” specialist/consultant. I had recently seen the mini-video clip of regarding housemanship which gone viral lately – “budak baru”

Something never change –

1.  How to tell which is House officer and which is Medical officer ?(male) – house officer look young and wear a tie, Medical officer don’t…specialist wear ties but they look “old”…

2.  There is always some “Bossy” specialist around the wards. They care about job done instead of training of the House officer….ask you to read up while the house officer doing tagging (work 7-11, and yet expect to read up after work…). Could scolding and yelling produce a better doctor ? I doubt it…

3.  Houseman would be judged initially from where you grad from.

4.  House officer is expected to know each case when they step into the ward. Clerking should be instant…

5.  Specialist always said, “my ward…..bla bla bla”

6.  CT and MRI is at the mercy of radiologist….house officer had to beg and beg and beg for an appointment.

Anyway it is a good video....

I had been telling others, I got paid to do my job and there is nothing about it, just a job like every other job in the world. The key is the passion, the passion to help others....
