It started off with some intense studying, trying to graduate from medical school, and ended after 6 months being an intern.
…I then still had almost one more month of holiday after coming back to Sydney, just chilling in Hong Kong and then actually going to Sydney again with Wendy.
…It was pretty scary at first, being on-call all by yourself, but then after a little while you know what you’re suppose to do and you just do your job.
Just another thing, if you haven’t noticed, I’ve moved my photo gallery to http://gallery.jeremyyip.com. The whole gallery will be removed shortly….
In PYNEH, I got to do a lot more minor surgeries, and had more experience with inserting chest drains etc. The scope of the their services are very difficult, and I guess both places has their advantages and disadvantages…. With all that time waste, it would be a whole lot easier if the nurses try to get the ECG right away, so that we can come right away and interpret the damn thing…. Yes the ECG is urgent, so let me interpret the damn thing the minute I get there…With the ending of the 2nd rotation, the job hunting season has just began.
The problem with the long LAN cable was the signal degraded along the way, the picture was chopping and I practically wasn’t able to watch anything…. The relay through the powerlines will act like a LAN cable directly connecting the two devices. This way, the modem and the decoder can be as far away as you like as long as there’s a power socket around.
I got called because a patient wanted some Triact (which is basically the cheapest kind of drug you would give if you have stomach pain)…. The patient told me that she has ulcer disease and she was told that analgesic can aggravate the ulcer disease…. All the nurse had to do was explain to that the patient that she doesn’t need triact because she wasn’t taking any ulcer causing drugs and then I won’t have to walk all the way over to see the patient.
