sometime

salam alayk,



it's true, there is no limit to what you can imagine,
And with commitment, with effort,
what you can imagine you can become.
if i don't imagine anything,
if i don't have any ideas what will happens,
what will happen then?
i partly agree with the power of visualization,
but, sometime...
what we hope,
what we imagine,
what we want,
is not happens, and it become vice versa
even after commitment and effort,
not all what we dreams come true,
there must be reason hidden behind,
now, i am looking for the reason...
i am looking for the answer...
where i can find it?
give me strength,
i hope that i will find it someday,
with the helps from others,
with the help from the Almighty.

Surgery posting review

Salam,

sedar tak sedar , masa berlalu dgn pantas,
satu posting 7 minggu ni sudah habis...
dan sedar tak sedar juga,
berakhirnya satu posting membawa berita baik & berita kurang baik dgn kata lain petanda...

berita baiknya: boleh menarik nafas lega telah mengharungi satu posting ini dgn jayanya...

petanda kurang baik: habis satu posting bermakna peperiksaan akhir semakin dgn, dan rasa mcm tak cukup ilmu utk menempuh peperiksaan itu makin terasa... dub..dab.. dab...

Secara keseluruhnya... saya amat suka dgn posting surggery & merupakan salah satu posting pilihanku... walaupun kadang2 bengong jugak krn tak dpt nak jawab soalan bertaraf master student. puas hati kerana dapat byk buat prosedur, terutamanya per rectal examination. Itulah kelebihannya di bawah team colorectal ni.... hihihi...mana tidaknya, hampir setiap pesakit yang datang ke klinik colorectal ada masalah hemorrhoid atau colorectal cancer.

pada minggu 1 yg penuh dgn kuliah2 dan skill teaching sebagai minggu persediaan posting surgery.


Selama 3 minggu di Hospital Teluk Intan di wad surgeri, menjalani pengajaran dari doktor2 yg baik & sempoi. Terima Kasih kepada semua kakitangan jabatan surgeri yg mengajar kami. Seronok dapat buat prosedur2 & tgk pembedahan2 semua. Sedikit perhargaan dari kump kami utk anda semua dgn jamuan ringkas sebelum pulang ke PPUKM.

Selama di Teluk Intan tu jgk, sempat ke Air terjun Lata Kinjang. Seronok sangat....

Rasanya macam tak puas utk posting surgery ni, terasa juga masih tidak mendalami ilmu surgery ini secukupnya.. aish...

Itulah serba sedikit pengalaman2 semasa posting surgery ni,
Minggu depan akan bermula posting Paediatrik pula,
dr pengalamn kawan2 sebelum ni, Posting paed ni la posting yg penuh dgn cabaran & dugaan...
dan akan ke Hospital Slim pula pada minggu ke-3 & ke-4...
Ya Allah,
Kuatkanlah semangat hambamu ini untuk menempuh dugaan mendatang...
permudahkanlah urusan kami...
Semoga dpt menjalani posting Paed tgh tabah & bersemangat...

Bila NC berfacebook



Salam semua,

apa macam layout baru kat blog nie?
ok ke tak?
saja try2 yang baru pulak,
di kala nak menyiapkan case write up untuk surgery ni,
tak sempat la nak buat entry la panjang lebar...

Dalam zaman kecangihan teknologi dan maklumat ni,
pelbagai cara di gunakan utk merapatkan hubungan sesama insan,
dan salah satu rangkaian sosial yang cukup popular & hangat mcm pisang panas kini ialah FACEBOOK , berbanding friendster atau network yg lain.

Sehingga, NC, TNC terutamanya TNC hal ehwal pelajar disarankan untuk menggunakan laman web sosial ini untuk berinteraksi sesama pelajar.
Bernas juga cadangan itu..
lagi2 sekarang ni perkhidmatan internet boleh didapati di mana2 jer...
tapi di sebalik agenda itu, ada tak keburukannya?
entah la...
asalkn digunakan untuk kebaikan dan permaslahan bersama..

dari web kosmo:

Semua NC disaran guna Facebook


KUALA LUMPUR - Kementerian Pengajian Tinggi (KPT) menyarankan semua Naib Canselor (NC) dan Timbalan Naib Canselor (TNC) institusi pengajian tinggi (IPT) menggunakan laman web sosial,Facebook bagi memudahkan mahasiswa berinteraksi dengan mereka.

Cadangan tersebut disuarakan oleh Timbalan Menteri Pengajian Tinggi, Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah yang berpandangan sudah sampai masanya NC dan TNC berbuat demikian.

Katanya, NC dan TNC terutama TNC Hal Ehwal Pelajar perlu berbuat demikian bagi membolehkan mahasiswa berinteraksi lebih mudah tanpa perlu mengikut waktu-waktu tertentu.

"Dengan itu, ia akan memberi peluang kepada setiap mahasiswa berinteraksi dengan pimpinan universiti. Lazimnya yang lebih mudah berjumpa dengan pemimpin universiti ialah pemimpin mahasiswa sahaja," katanya.

itu jer =)

Doctors in the making

Doctors in the making

By KAREN CHAPMAN

THE ultimate goal of medical education is to produce competent and ethical doctors. Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia has gone a step further by including personal and professional development as part of its medical degree.

FROM gynaecology to cardiology, medicine is a career with many choices.

But there’s more to being a doctor than diagnosing patients and treating their illnesses.

A doctor’s personal and professional development is just as important.

Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) medical faculty dean and UKM medical centre director Prof Datuk Dr Lokman Saim said the ultimate goal of medical education is to produce competent, safe and ethical doctors.

»There’s more to being a doctor than diagnosing patients and treating their illnesses as a doctor’s personal and professional development is just as important«PROF LOKMAN

“The recent trend among medical schools is to put emphasis on students’ personal and professional development, and for this to be assessed.

“Traditionally, students who began their clinical training in their third year often acquired their ‘professionalism’ by observing their seniors and specialists who trained and imparted not only their knowledge, but values to them. However, there was no way of knowing if the students actually picked and practised their good habits,’’ he said.

In traditional medical education, students had lectures in areas such as anatomy, pharmacology and biochemistry and spent time in laboratories in the first three years.

In their third year (of the medical degree), they would be sent for their clinical postings to hospitals where they would obtain further training in diagnosing patients.

“This has been the tradition and it is during clinical postings that students are supervised by doctors. Apart from getting hands-on training, the students can also gauge and observe the manner in which their superiors conduct themselves before patients.

“This is also the time when they (students) too build their own character in terms of bedside manners and ethics, and in doing so, acquire a level of professionalism for themselves.”

Prof Lokman however pointed out that “professionalism’ in itself, could not be taught.

Communicating with patients like how to convey bad news, and whether to tell family members of a patient’s illness, were in the past learnt through apprenticeship or clinical postings.

“But in the actual practice of medicine, besides the knowledge and clinical skills, professionalism is very important as it makes a doctor ethical, courteous and able to communicate well with patients.

“All this while, these factors were not formalised in the curriculum, but the recent trend in medical education is to include issues of personal and professional development as part of the curriculum,” he added.

In short, they have to be included in the medical curriculum to ensure that future doctors would turn out to be both compassionate and knowledgeable professionals.

Doctors-to-be

The subject is called Personal and Professional Development (PPD) and is a part of UKM’s new five-year medical curriculum for students.

“PPD is emphasised in our new university curriculum as we have changed from the traditional curriculum to one which is more integrated and this is one of the subjects.

“University officials visited medical schools in Australia and the United Kingdom before reviewing the curriculum but the PPD and student camps are our own innovation,” he added.

Prof Lokman said this subject is taught throughout the five years of the medical degree, and is not limited to just one or two lectures on ethics or how to be a good doctor.

“We decided to add PPD in response to the demands of the society where we see many complaints regarding doctors, mainly due to ethical issues, doctors not being professional and most important is a problem with communication as some doctors don’t communicate.

“Very few problem cases are on inadequate skills or knowledge. Patients sue doctors because they don’t know how to communicate with them, not just in Malaysia but throughout the world,” he said.

The most common problem with some doctors is that they “see” patients but they do not say anything or look at them and just dispense the medicine, he added.

Since personality and professionalism are issues, it was decided that the medical curriculum at UKM should include them.

This is also the trend of medical education throughout the world, where personal and professional development are taught and assessed.

“If they have not passed the subject, they cannot graduate as doctors,” he said.

How PPD is taught

It is not just about lectures and notes for PPD but a mixture of learning styles.

There are several general concept lectures on ethics and professionalism but a person cannot change just by attending them, he added.

“The other method is to have small group discussions where they discuss real or simulated cases which involve ethical or personality issues.

“About 10 to 12 students will discuss the issue and come up with an opinion — again developing personality cannot be done in a big group,” he said, adding that the discussions are supervised by facilitators who are specialists.

Another method of teaching is to face simulated patient scenarios — where they are put in situations that would test their skills in dealing with a difficult patient, having to break bad news or how to explain procedures and obtaining consent for them from patients.

“This wasn’t taught previously, so some doctors could have explained the wrong thing or used very medical terms.

“We teach them how it should be done using layman terms,” he said.

Prof Lokman highlighted that camps to further emphasise students’ personal and professional development, are held three times during the five-year medical degree — in their first, third and fifth years of study. “Usually when students go camping, it is for leisure but this camp is part of the medical curriculum.

“They are gathered in a camp for four days with about 20 lecturers,” he said, adding that most activities are carried out in small groups of 10.

According to Prof Lokman, the objectives of these camps are to inculcate the spirit of working together as a team and leadership qualities.

The camps for first-year students are like a transition period as they prepare students to move from a school environment to one that houses doctors-in-the-making.

Besides seminars, there are also small group discussions on the importance of practising good values as well as the esssence and meaning of humanity, sincerity, kindness and love. At the first-year student camps, students also identify the attributes of good and bad doctors.

Fourth-year medical student Mohd Fadhli Mohd Fauzi said the camp is a good introduction to what life as a medical student is about.

“We learn about the different learning styles and time management too,” he said.

Mohd Fadhli who is also president of the medical student association, said the role plays during the camps are useful as they help with picking up skills.

“We are given a scenario and students will either act as patients and doctors so we can better understand what our patients go through,” he said.

Prof Lokman said selected movies which have legal and medico issues are also shown and students will then discuss them.

As an example, in the camp for first year students, the movie Patch Adams is shown — it is the story of Hunter “Patch” Adams (as portrayed by Robin Williams), a medical doctor who became famous for his unconventional approach to medicine.

But it is not all serious discussions as there is time for games and jungle trekking too.

Recalling one fun game, Mohd Fadhli said it was a telematch where groups of students had to dress in surgical scrubs and carry out activities — whoever was the fastest won the game.

“It was fun as we had to really work together till the end,” he added.

Another activity which Mohd Fadhli liked during the third year PPD camp was the white coat ceremony — when the facilitators gave them their white coats.

“It is a symbolic gesture as the third year is the first time we go to the hospital wards for our clinical postings,” he said.

Prof Lokman said other activities for the third-year student camps include the students demonstrating their abilities to work in a team and having sketches and role play.

“There are also small group discussions on confidentiality and the doctor-patient relationship,” he said.

At the third-year PPD camp, he said students discuss skills on keeping proper documentation for medico-legal records, death certificates, disease notification, sexual violence and child abuse.

There are also discussions on identifying misconduct and negligence in current medical practice.

“As an example, the students learn about medical certificates and the importance of not issuing them unethically,” said Prof Lokman.

Fifth-year medical student Farin Masra who has attended all three camps, feels they have helped her become a more holistic doctor in the making.

“The fifth-year student camp has also prepared me to become a houseman as I finish in eight months’ time,” she added.

Farin said the camps have also been useful as the facilitators themselves have shared what it is like to be practising doctors and the importance of balancing relationships with both patients and family.

Prof Lokman said feedback from students is that they enjoy the camps as it is a different environment from the university.

“These activities are all assessed. Facilitators give marks on students’ performance and participation.

“There are also mini tests and these marks are added up as a continuous assessment of how students are doing,” he added.

me & public transport


salam semua,

maaf yer kawan2 pembaca blog semua,
rasanya, sudah berhabuk dan bersawang blog nie,
lagi2 setelah berada di hosp teluk intan,
terasa berbeza kesibukan di tahun akhir ni berbanding dengan tahun 3 suatu ketika dulu...
esok kena balik rumah,
ade kecemasan & urusan yg perlu diselesaikan...
tak dapet la den nak tgk citer harry potter minggu nih...
hancur semua plan den.. aish

bercakap pasal balik rumah ni,
mesti la kena menggunakan pengangkutan awam,
al-maklum la, org yg tak berkerjaya lagi & x mampu nak beli kenderaan roda 4...
alih2 baca paper (~online jer pun),
tambang pengangkutan awam naik!!!!
naik lagi!!!
kerajaan, kasihanilah kami yg tak berkenderaan ini..
sebagai rakyat, apa yg kita boleh buat,
ikut sahaja la... di sebalik 11 perkara yg baru diperkenalkan itu,
tak boleh nak kata lebih2, nanti tak pasal2 kena tutup plak blog ini...

tetapi pada pendapat aku sebagai pengguna setia pengangkutan awam ni,
penggunaan pengangkutan awam patut di galakkan oleh pihak berkenaan bagi mengurangkn kesesakan lalu lintas yg tahap dewa di KL ni, di samping byk lagi faktor 2 lain.
seharusnya fasiliti , mutu dan kualiti perkhidmatan pengangkutan awam di malaysia patut di naik tarafkan dan dipertingkatkan...

sekadar ~~ meluahkan pendapat sahaja~~
ampun pak.. ampun..

Tambang pengangkutan awam naik

KUALA LUMPUR - Tambang semua jenis pengangkutan awam melibatkan perkhidmatan bas ekspres, bas henti-henti, bas sekolah, teksi dan kereta sewa dinaikkan antara 30 dan 50 peratus berkuat kuasa 1 Ogos ini.

Kenaikan itu bermakna semua pengguna akan dikenakan kadar tambang baru dari 2 sen sehingga RM7 mengikut kelas pengangkutan dan jarak yang ditetapkan bagi Semenanjung.

Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz berkata, kadar tambang pengangkutan awam disemak semula memandangkan kadar sekarang diguna pakai sejak Mei 2005.

"Penentuan kadar tambang tersebut telah mengambil kira inisiatif dan subsidi yang diberikan kerajaan untuk membantu sektor pengangkutan awam.

"Pada masa yang sama pertimbangan juga dibuat untuk mengimbangi kepentingan pengusaha dan pengguna agar kenaikan tidak membebankan," katanya pada sidang akhbar di sini selepas menyempurnakan Majlis Penyampaian Surat Tawaran Kelulusan Fasa 3 kepada 831 penerima di Pusat Konvensyen Sime Darby di sini semalam.


nota kaki: terpaksa berjimat utk tidak berjalan2 menggunakan pengangkutan awam seperti selalu
