So before start tagging in each dept, please make sure you;

✅ ask this tagging log/sheet from senior HOs.

Jadi boleh study siap2 sebelum start tagging - nnt busy & sangat penat biasa tak sempat nak study 🫠
.

✅ PRE-TAG with senior HOs before your actual tagging start so you can #familiarize yourself to the ward & practice basic task as HO

So nnt bila masuk ward untuk tagging dah #independent to do all these basic procedures & task ✅

Gynae protocol for HTF,

but applicable for other Hospital too as the principle of management is the same ✅

A very good read before starting HOship soon 😎

Nota Perubatan
Anyone thinking of going for private practice as GP?

Factors to be considered (just some advices compiled from seniors):
1) How much is the salary? How is the salary increment? How is the incentives per procedure / scan? Additional benefits? Profit sharing with owners for sales generated?
-Let's say RM 8,000 per month is being offered, it looks like a good deal. After tax, SOCSO, EPF, how much is left?

2) How many hours of working per week? Patient's load per day?
- Does that fulfil your dream of work-life balance?
- 45 hours a week would be acceptable

3) What is your long term goal? To become a specialist in a particular field? To be a successful doctor-entrepreneur? To become a resident in private clinic with fixed salary ± incentives?

4) How many days and types of leave offered (compared to government sector)? Is it easy to apply for leaves or replacement when you are taking leave? Maternity leave available?

5) Job security? Contract period? How is the exit clause (if you plan to resign in that clinic later on)?

6) Career progression

7) Additional skills and qualifications / professional certificate / credentials / experience e.g. antenatal and gynae scan, circumcision, business / sales skills, communication skills etc.

8) Sales target to achieve each month? Revenue is an important part in private clinic, without sales the clinic would not have income.

9) Completed Khidmat Wajib?

10) Bond with scholarship?

11) Have you had experience working as locum doctor before? It gives you exposure whether you are suitable to work in private clinic and you will also get to know whether that clinic is suitable for you to work there for long term.

12) Competition (now and in the future like 10 years ahead)

13) Training / course provided? (course is not cheap)

14) Ask around, how is the employer. Work with employers who are responsible, considerate and take care of their employees.

Sometimes certain things look easy and attractive. In reality, nothing is easy without great effort.

🗓. 🗓. 🗓. 🗓. 🗓. 🗓. 🗓

Macam mana ya jadual kerja HO? 🤔
.

👉🏻 🗓 waktu TAGGING;

Punch in 7am, punch out 10pm, tapi biasanya kena datang lebih awal & balik lebih lambat beberapa jam sebab kita tak mahir lagi buat kerja-kerja wad.

Cuti (off day) sehari seminggu, tak boleh pilih off hari apa.
.

⚠️ Tapi ada juga department tagging straight 1-2 minggu tanpa off day. Bersedialah ya, tagging memang tough 😣

👉🏻 🗓 Flexihour shift (lepas offtag)

Biasanya ada 3 shift, contohnya;

AM 7am-5pm
Extended ie long shift 7am-9pm
ON ie night shift 8pm-8am

⚠️ working hours ni on paper saja, ie waktu perlu punch in & out.

Realitinya, perlu datang lebih awal, dan mungkin stay lebih lama, kita hanya boleh balik bila semua ward work dah settle 😅
.

Berapa hari cuti seminggu?
Berapa hari kerja malam ie ON?

Bergantung ada berapa ramai HO.

Tengok contoh roster mingguan HO ni; setiap baris tu jadual seorang HO.
.

Kedah O&G protocol

Sabah O&G protocol

🔼 few O&G protocols.

Kalau dah start HOs, boleh download/ask from seniors HOs your own state/dept punya O&G protocol.

Kalau masih menunggu HO posting, saya recommend focus baca Kedah state protocol (sbb very concise & HO friendly).

Siap ada color2 & very neat, so boleh print & baca semua common topics according to O&G HO logbooks sementara tunggu masuk HO ni ❤️

🔼 ni contoh HO guide utk Ortho dept 🦴


Guide macam ni sgt membantu utk kita faham jobscope & common cases/procedure di dept baru.


So yg akan start tagging di dept baru, boleh minta dari senior HOs guide & protocol hospital masing2 ya 👍🏻


‼️lain hosp, berbeza sket ward work flow & OT days ya. Procedure insyaAllah more or less the same ✌🏻
