Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri,
Maaf Zahir Batin dari kami ❤️

Gambar pagi raya semalam posing tak berapa jadi, so saya up dulu gambar 10 tahun lepas time HO 😂

Alhamdulillah sekarang dah tambah 4 ahli keluarga, 15kg berat badan 🤣 dan 7000+ alumni #Excellent doctor.

Raya dulu, esok kita sambung semula revision 👍🏻 Enjoy quality time with your love ones ❤️

Dah baca buku & CPG, tapi rasa tak #ingat pun? 😅

Lepas dah habis med school, kita belajar bukan untuk hafal & ‘muntahkan’ semula knowledge & skills kepada examiner,

Tapi kita untuk faham macam mana nak diagnose & manage patient 👍🏻

Yg dah revise semenara tunggu HO ni, insyaAllah akan lebih mudah adapt ke working environment nnt sebab ‘knowlegde not so rusty’ even after months of waiting after graduation.

So jangan putus asa untuk revise sementara menunggu HO ni 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

NRP 7th Edition’s algorithm & reference chart 📊

NRP (neonatal resuscitation program) is equivalent to BLS & advance life support in adult.

Previously it is #compulsory for all HO to pass NRP during paeds posting,

but nowadays due to large number of HO, some dept do not make it compulsory any more 😅

Good news is - you now can do the NRP online!

NRP is a critical skills for any doctors (not for those in paediatric dept only), as any doctor should be able to attend delivery & assess new born baby & resuscitate accordingly 👍🏻

Here’s very good video to test your basic knowledge on Neonatology & NRP.

Try ya, it’s only 8 minute video👌🏻

Bila kerja ie start #shift di ward baru, simply greet the nurses at their counter,

“Assalamualaikum SN, saya HO Iliana, night shift malam ni dgn Dr Firdaus. Apa2 boleh inform/call saya trus ya, No saya dkt whiteboard ward. Tq ya SN”

When is next HO intake after June?

Based on previous years’ trend;

🗓 2019 (pre-COVID)

PTM end of June,
mid August,
end of Oct,
mid Nov.

🗓 2020

PTM end of July,
end of August,
end of Sept,
end of Oct
(Monthly HO intake from July-Oct last year)

So most probably, the upcoming PTM after June will be in mid/end of August

🚧 Road to HOship;

Average #waiting time for HO is;

6-9 months (from ‘melepasi tapisan’ to PTM)

▶️ E-HO to PTM; 3-4 weeks

▶️ PTM 3-5 working days,
(Negeri yg tgh PKP tak ada PTM ya, trus report duty ke hospital)

Then weekend off,

Then directly report duty to your respective hospital the next working day to start your hospital orientation.

▶️ Hosp orientation; 3 days to 2 weeks (depending on hospital, most hospital will cut short the orientation due to COVID)

Then only you’ll start Tagging in your respective ward.

Must know for HOs, and MOs, of course 👌🏻

1▶️ yes, we are expecting next intake HO intake in June. But still unsure whether it will be delayed due to MCO 3.0.

Usually intake after raya involve 800-1000+ HOs.

Not sure how many tapisan will be included as quite a number of university was affected by the perwartaan issue & might not be included in the intake.

(lots of you DM me regarding this, sorry if I didn’t reply)

2▶️ There’s a lot of uncertainties due to MCO & the pewartaan issue;

we do not know whether KKM will reduce number of HO for June intake,

Or keep the number & include more people from new tapisan to substitute those affected by pewartaan issue.

3▶️ I know all these uncertainties are frustrating. But we do not have control over these issues 😅

The best you can do is to prepare yourself well for HOship & be flexible with your planning while waiting for HO posting 👌🏻

We desperately need extra manpower due to Covid, a lot of HOs need to be quarantined from time to time, hence your service is critically needed.

These also means that once you start HOship, you’re expected to function much faster and work independently as soon as possible due to high workload
