hmm..the first day, feelings of fear, nervous, excitement.. the first view of it: it's really HOUGANG chalet... in the past, i dun knw why they call IMH hougang chalet, now i knw. hmm.. the building is like a chalet. first day was actually orientation of the hosp. lots of psychiatric stuff to learn..
b4 lunch we then got to our own wards. but we still dun get to see them(patient).. is after lunch then our instructor intro us to the patients, the ward. the patients are really no different frm us, is just that they r not in reality. that's the day.
but the day is still SPOILT by the ward (s****r). she scolded us for one thing that we GALS actually din do it. the girls toilet was complained by the cleaner that is full of Blood. hmm.. is kind of embarrasing, when she scolded us (girls) in front of the group which have guys and our teacher is a malE~ wah kaoz... as if we are the only girls in the ward! how bout the staff?
subsequent days, we invovled with more interaction with our patients. mainly talking to them, know about their conditions. it was challenging, we student nurses have to like open up, dun need save the face~ haha...
we also plan activites and have some education session with the patient..
seeing some patient improving, getting themselves more involved with activites for some which actually isolated themselves.. i feel a sense of fulfilment! =)
5 more days, and it ends the posting at IMH. =)
