Never closes

SGH is the only hospital in Singapore that never shuts its doors even when all the beds are filled up.

That means there'll always be new cases to clerk, always.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I remember my previous MO said there used to be a commadarie in the past.

Whereby the HOs on call would try to help each other, especially when their call is lighter.

I think that's very nice, and a practice we should try to keep up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Being on call is like a lucky draw.

You start off the call in anticipation of a trying call, especially when you are either HO 1, 2, 4.

Sometimes, you get really unlucky and the load knocks you off your feet.

Sometimes you get lucky and manage to rest your butt on the red armchair in your call room.

So, do you feel lucky today?


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Being on call is like going to war.

Every call is like a battle, you go in without knowing if you'll survive or not.

But when you see the morning sun, you know you will make it.

sometimes changes can never be finished. it's just prioritising which r the ones that need to be done first.
