#5 : Killer Department

Killer ??? Shouldn't we all be Healer ???

The ugly truth is that, not everyone is professional, even the specialist !!!

Every hospital has killer department at least one. If theres two killer department and you still choose to go there, i can't find a better word to describe you than "Insanity" !!

What makes a department becomes a killer department :-
1) The Head of Department (HOD aka Big Boss)
- eg: very strict, one wrong dose of paracetamol, straight away get extended. Forgot to wear name tag, you'll get warning letters, ect.

2) The Specialist
- eg : have a special request like, HO must remember all cases while presenting the case to him/her, they will take the patient's file away from you. Cannot set up IV line at patient's leg (even if its damn hard to set in the arm). Many more. Some i find very childish & stupid, like i said, not all are professional

3) The Medical Officer
- eg : all orders given by him/her, must be settle before evening round. Some are beyond HO power, like to call the family member to come to hospital to sign consent. Or to make sure the discharge patient go back before evening round. ** i'm not making all these, it happened to me when i was a HO**

4) Lame sister / nurse / attendant
eg : you want to take blood culture, but the blood bottle is not there. You order nurse to give oxygen, but oxygen tank is empty. Ask the attendant to take the blood investigation result at lab, but they only bring back patient's food (although lab and diet department is on the same the way). At the end of the day, you'll get scolded by your superior for "not" doing your job on time.
** some department has very cekap staff, while others, just makan gaji buta, specialist & MO never blame staff **
