work attachment is superb! me, clara n xiao hui were attached to St Luke's hospital at bt baotk.came on monday thinking i'll be doing endless piles of medical records. n yeah, i wus partly right. but hey, our supervisor wus nyce enuff to let us do other things besides just filing stuff.
Kenneth ate lunch wif us on da 1st day thinking we din kno our way around wen actually, clara knows bt batok real well coss thats practically her neighbourhood lah.. ahahs aniwaes, he tok to us abit n i tink aft that, he decided to attach us to different departments. uber cool. he wanted to rotate us around 3 departments frm tues to thurs.
Tues: i wus sent off to day rehab. its were all the previous in-patients come for rehabilitaion to help them move n werk their muscles as per normal agaiin. der wer many physiotherapist around too..the 1st 10 mins was ok. den, the next 3 n a half hrs wus agonizing. i cuden relli do much cos most of the therapists were bz with the patients. n of course, i wus afraid i wud get in their way so diden relli approach dem to ask qns. n der wus this one therapists hu said to me :" u must ask qns... hu knows this mite be ur job one day.." n im lyk, ya rite. i have absolutely no patience n i dun tink i'll be able to tahan the patients rants n what nots. but of cors, i din say dat. jus gave my sheepish grin n went off pretending to pester sum therapist and ask qns...
but it wus not all boring der. observed quite alot of stuff. n im utterly amazed at this particular therapist named chichi. yes, chichi. cute ehs? ahahss. she came frm myanmar about 2 years ago n alreadi she wus speaking chinese n malay. n i tink she knew dialects too! wayy cool. n she wus ultra patient wif the patients.hehehs.quite a petite lady. wonder how she manage to support her patients and all. i guess she got used to it over time..
den aft lunch, we went back to the MRO to do our medical records agaiin. it wus ok lah. we did shredding of the old files. wonder y dey must take so much trouble. its nt lyk anyone's gg to steal empty files.. ohwells. i nvr knew shredding cud be quite fun. we used to shredding machine to shred thousands of files, literally. n yeah, clara, xiao hui n i were pretty violent to the poor machine. especially xiao hui. hehe. nvr knew so much strength cud come out of such a petite gerl. n yeah, we broke apart the trash compartment several times. but hey, being the pros that we are, we got it back it one piece over n over n over agaiin.
