Bersama Datin (rugi sape tak datang)
Di pintu depan
2010…tahun baru…destinasi baru…dunia baru
Looking forward to start Forensic attachment in Serdang. If I was Tru in Tru Calling, then maybe I can talk to the dead and re-living the event prior to their death. If I was the Ned in Pushing Daisies, maybe I can ask them to tell their story.
Dah selesai sesi IPR. Tak sempat ucap goodbye to my patients. The one in Ward 5, she’s febrile the time I left her. When I attended to her bed, she just lie there and mumbling something I couldn’t figure. Aku sangat risau kat dia. Kalau orang lain demam kat dalam ward, aku tak risau sangat. Being her, she could have it long-term and probably fatal.
IPR as we knew it, with its grooming mirror yang besar kat lobby. Well to be honest, IPR adalah hospital yang mempunyai banyak cermin I tell you. They really want you to look that good and presentable before attending to patient. I will miss my time there. The confident walk, the respect you get everytime you passed by patients, their family and relatives and even those nursing students. Everybody nod out of respect once they see you with your white coat except for pre-existing doctors and staff who knew you are just the third year medical student. Otherwise, everyone else never failed to cater to your need.
Patients are never reluctant to expose themselves for you to do PE on them. They are more open to reveal their risky behavior, their past transgression, and all sorts. They trust your words. Even female patients, if you are there with your female friend as chaperon, they are very cooperative to be bare. Not that anything sexual about that, but it’s their trust and confident in us that really touches our heart.
“Terima kasih doktor!” is such a bone-chilling, shivering words that work magically good for your ego. Macam such kind of doa untuk mencapai cita-cita. InsyaAllah.
I once got thanks from my MDR-PTB patient for starting him on methadone therapy once again selepas dia request kat aku masa aku buat clerking kat dia. Well I have to tell you, I have nothing to do with it. It must have been the Psych Consult yang started him back. It just happened to be I was saying the right word at the right time when he voices his request. “Takpe, nanti saya try cakap dengan doktor pasal tu,” but I didn’t say a words to the Ward 6 doctor. But this patient flatters me even more…
He is the frequent defaulted patient who has been in-and-out of Isolation Ward for the past 5 years. The moment I tell him the reason why his TB hasn’t resolved up til now in jargon free words with the right analogy made him understood. He finally gets the clear picture why and now he is really determined to make this ward admission his last. He finally understands the mechanism of his Multiple Drug Resistant status.
“Sebelum ni takde siapa nak terangkan kat saya. Sebab tu bila rasa OK sikit, saya stop makan ubat. Tapi, bila doktor bagitahu, barulah saya paham.”
He also respects my order to ask him to stop smoking and chasing dragon. That is why he requests me to put him on with methadone therapy once more. The truth is I was there to clerk him and do some physical examination but it turned out, luck really favors my side.
How could I forget IPR. The hospitality that Datin shows us really touch our hearts. The specialist, some of the M.Os who motivate. The kindness of Ward 5 and Ward 6 doctors and nurses will always be remembered.
InsPiRation is IPR
