On Job Training
I feel resentful towards the way i was treated and insinuated at.
Lets see. my objectives for OJT is to learn as much as possible and for learning to take place, i need to be proactive.
I have to admit that my Proactive-ness was super super mild to the extent that i was always seen doing nothing but sit down.
I am not proactive because i was alone in an unfamiliar terrain. I need to be certain of the flow of the work and i definitely cannot do the paperwork because i am not from there and they obviosuly do not trust me because I AM A STUDENT.
SSN: You know you are attached here, you need to walk around. There is a camera you know (Pointing at the camera). You know you need to walk around.
Me: (Nod head, smile) Ok. *I got the hint*
In ma heart, Whadda hell. Its 8am and there is NO patient. What am i suppose to do!!!
And so i walk around (as instructed) looking at paintings at the same time trying very hard to find things to do to occupy myself.
ok here is a scenario.
What do you do when an agitated patient refused her blood pressure to be taken by you and is very agitated +++ ?
Try again later right? and If that doesnt work still what do you do? Leave it blank like that even though you know that she was given IM Lorazepam?
Last resort is to seek the help of the family members la.
SSN: The machine cost thousands of dollars you know. Cannot leave the machine like that. Cannot let the Family member do (while looking at one of the SN). If spoilt how?
I know she was hinting at me because I WAS THE ONE WHO SEEK HELP FROM FAMILY MEMBERS. I knew she just does not trust me.
Damn you la. the blood pressure of the patient more important right. And anyway, if you are really so concern about the machine, tell me straight to my face la. STOP INSINUATING.
She ignored me and pretend as if i was invisbile.
I HATE. Really hate being here. Its boring having to idle around, trying hard to find something to do with minimal patients for my 8 hours shift.
Blood pressure taking.
"chatting" with the patients while awaiting to be seen by Drs.
How much can this occupy me for the damn 8 Hours and at the same time having to tolerate irritating SSN who thinks i know nothing and doing nothing. I really wish i was never here.
I have NEVER love attachments since my Diploma days and that feeling has never chanegd one bit.
