wah! it has been months since my last update……

well that reflects my lack of enthusiasm in blogging but however, my extra time gets my writing mode into action.

currently I’m doing a 2-month elective at one of the leading hospitals in Msia. i still have a week to go.

we final year students can choose anywhere in the world for our elective and for me of cos msia is the destination, mainly to have a long holidays. i had a month and a half holiday prior to my elective. But its almost ended and argghhh! i have to go back to auckland in less than a fortnight!

sad but i cant wait for this year to end!

Just one observation that caught my attentiont he most during my posting here. I dont understand why hierarchy is praticed quite significantly here. in the wards, the consultants (not all of them thank to God!) come at his own time letting the junior officers to do the job first. when they arrived, they will do the round all over again (or partial ward round). one good thing about this is, it will help the junior officers to develop their responsibility and confidence, and not just waiting for the superior to do all the jobs but what i hate the most is, this leads to a bad time management and finally piling up the works! this later causes lotsa problems like poor performance due to tiredness, mismangement and so on.

I prefer if all the team members come at the same time, manage patients collectively at the same time. Its not only time saving but the juniors can learn directly from the consultants maximally.

I did ask about this matter  to the doctors (not the consultants cuz i dont wanna be a bitch) and they say this follows the hierarchy and it always been like that for years. its like a tradition. however, not all consultants are like this because they might have other important things in the morning. and my comment here is for the disciplines that I do during this elective. no idea if this happens in other departments too.

tapi jika kita tengok, masyarakat memang ada hirarki berdasarkan apa jua klasifikasi tapi yang penting, pada Allah amal ibadat kita yang menempatkan kita berada pada kirarki yang mana.
