What to expect on your 1st day in the ward?🙃

What to prepare for #tagging?

How to study for OFFtag? 🤓

Work live balance during HOship?

How to clerk & #manage cases properly as HO?

How to present & #refer cases without being scolded (or bombarded with questions by MO/specialist)? 🤔

How to do #rounds effectively & cover all patients before MO come?

👆🏻above are the usual #concerns of any medical graduates before staring HOship, based on my humbe experience working with HO for the past 9 years.


As med students, we heard loooots of stories about HOship - but very few actually prepared us to be a good one - or at least, prepared us for the challenging #reality that awaits 😓

So I crafted the ⚡️Flash HO Induction modules to make sure any medical grads know exactly what to #expect ( & avoid culture shock & unnecessary panic attack 😣),

And most importantly, how to #adapt & function as HO as soon as you step into the dept 👍🏻

So if you’re a clinical year student or fresh grad, ⚡️FLASH HO is the least that you should attend.

Most HO find it hard to adapt during their early days because the real job scope in the ward is not what we were taught in medical school before!

Dulu mana pernah buat round cover sampai sepuluh patients, refer & buat discharge kan? 🤭 Nanti 1st few days as HO semua dah kena buat semua ni, sendiri!

What you will learn during Flash HO Induction?

https://t.me/driliana9/6390

Must know #normal values for HOs;

🔼 [FBC - Full Blood Count 🩸 ]

WBC - white blood cell
Hb - Hemoglobin
HCT - haematocrit
PLT - platelet

🔽 [RP - renal profile]
Aka [BUSE - blood urea serum electrolytes]

Urea, Creat, Na+, K+

🔽 [LFT - liver function test]

Alb - albumin
Bil - bilirubin
ALP - alkaline phosphatase
ALT - alanine transaminase

Kenapa HO kena #hafal normal value?

Cause the reference range is only available in the computer system & if you get the printed copy as above.

But as a HO, we will usually copy the result into flow chart or patient BHT - so when you review case/ie see the BHT alone - you won’t know whether the result is normal or NOT, unless you remember the normal value ie the reference range ⚠️
.

Ini list lab values yg HO wajib tahu sebelum start #tagging dalam wad 🔼

Semalam waktu #live class on HO assessment, ada yg tanya apa #requirement for #offtag?

- maksudnya apa yg kena buat supaya kita boleh OFF tagging di setiap department?
.

Biasanya setiap posting akan ada tagging log/ form /OFF tag sheet macam ni;

Contoh Off tag assessment list in #Medical posting.
.

New HO perlu tahu apa nak buat bila attend patient with:

SOB, chest pain, hyper/hypotension,
hypo/hyperkalaemia, hypo/hyperglycaemia


Ini semua common ward emergencies yg HO perlu attend, #assess, #manage & inform MO according.

(Termasuk interprete ECG & ABG, calculate potassium correction etc)⚠️

So list atas ni bukan OFF TAG requirement di #Medical posting saja, tapi biasanya di #Surgical & #Ortho juga. Sebab di semua ward selalu ada case2 emergencies macam ni

That’s why Medicorp has prepared online modules on all these important topics,

Speakers are Internal Medicine & Emergency Medicine MO & #specialist 👨‍⚕️👩‍⚕️
.

We have case discussion on each topics & cover what HO need to do in each situation 😎
.

Register here & start learning all this for only RM 39 🌟
.

Let’s save your patients & save yourself from unnecessary stress during tagging later 🫠

Ini pula contoh Tagging #Log/sheet di #Surgical.

Sebelum offtag, setiap HO perlu;

1️⃣ know how to #clerk, formulate #plan od management & #present common cases in the dept
.

2️⃣ know HO responsilibity at different subunit od the dept;

OT, minor OT/daycare, OGDS & colonoscopy room, ERCP suite -
includes how to prepare patient eg bowel prep
.

3️⃣ tag in different surgical #ward & assist in other subunit as per 2️⃣
