Hey everybody. So it thought i'd write a quick update. I had my orientation at the hospital yesterday. I'm doing my clinical work at the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital. It's freaking huge lol, i think it currently sits at 950 beds and has just about every department that you can think of. It's a great place to do the first couple of years and then I think i'll try to get in somewhere a bit smaller for third and fourth so that I can have a bit more responsibility and opportunity to get my hands dirty (pardon the figure of speech). They've finally caught up with what they missed because of the floods and I think that my schedule should open up a bit this week. They say that the amount of information and workload will dramatically increase, but the actual lecture schedule will decrease. So i'm looking forward to that in a few ways :) . Anywho, hopefully everyone at home is doing well. Remember, you can always write me or post on my blog if you have any questions about what's going on in my life, or any news about what's going on in yours!
talk to you soon,
Harrison
Glad that you found a few minutes on a Saturday to post this up! It's really good to hear about your progress - even if it is only the first couple of weeks!
ReplyDeleteThe hospital sounds totally huge and overwhelming. My only reference is McMaster Childrens, which from their website says they have less than 200 beds... and it's a friggin huge place! I can't imagine what RBWH would be with 950!
I just realized that I'm using exclamation marks a lot! Sorry...
keep the updates coming.
Hey!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you're getting into the more interesting stuff so quickly. :D
Maybe a pair of rollar blades would be a good investment. You could get around the hospital quickly and hopefully not turn any civilians into patients!
ReplyDeleteHarrison, it is now february. Post something else pork chop!
