nineth DaY of AttAchMent
Today is the first day of orientation for all the new staffs. There was anxiety and shyness in me as i got to see a lot of new faces which i am not familiar with. To my shock, some of the staffs who worked for more than 6 months and miss out the orientaion had to go for it too. It seems like it is a compulsory for all the staffs to go for orientation once. There are quite a few of talks from various departments. The most inspirational talk i ever attend is by the CEO, Mr Liak Teng Lit as he told us that dun be afraid to make mistakes but only the smart ones will not make the mistakes twice and be initiative by contributing something meaningful to the society. Singapore's healthcare financing is pretty much similar to the british's which is the tax based. it means that working adults paying tax that contributes to the funds for the healthcare for the elderly. The way that the Mr Liak made the speech seems so interesting that allow the listener to concentrate more on what he is about to say regardless the number of hours that he took. He also told us the history of Alexandra Hospital and how the old Alexandra Hospital looked like.
The various departments such as Nursing, Quality Management, infection control, clinical services and cooperate communications made about 30 minutes presentation each. The staffs who are in charge for these departments gave us a brief idea of they do in each individual department, who are the committee members are and the expectations for it.
We also have a short game which allowed us to brainstorm together and practise the 7 habits of highly effective people. It showed that teamwork and perserverence are so important regardless what you are doing. After that game, Jasmine who is the one in charge of the orientation explained each of them to use and hope that we will practise it more often.
We had a tour around the hospital for like 45 minutes. They show us where the emergency, hospital club, hostel, montruary, genatric, rehabilitation, pharmacy, different type of clinics, library and physiotherapy centre is.
