Snippets

Posted by peanut on Sunday Dec 13, 2009 Under as a HO

Scenario 1

A lot of people prefer to take care of male wards rather than female. It can be due to A LOT OF reasons. But everything evolve in this new word that I would like to introduce.

Fren 1 : I don’t like to take care of female wards la.
Me : Why ah? Not the same?
Nurse 1 : Yeala, they come in with hypo laa, poor oral intake la, dehydration secondary to poor oral intake la.
Me : Because they are more emo?
Nurse 1 : No, it is called - Manja-litis.
Me : LOL

The manjalitis is certainly something huge. Big problem I would say.

Occasion 1
Me : Kenapa tak nak makan nasi?
Pt : Takde selera laaaa..

Occasion 2
Me : Kenapa tak nak makan ubat?
Pt : Nanti laaaa, tak de mood laaa..

I don’t know how to treat manjalitis.

Scenario 2

It is evident that people do not like hospital stays. That include me. But then, if you do not have a problem, you wouldn’t NEED a hospital stay.

They always come in today, and that night itself, will ask that golden question that can send my BP over the roof.

“Doc, bila boleh balik?”

Be it in mandarin or english or malay or unknown language, that is seriously one sensitive issue.

“Baru masuk dah nak balik?”

Sigh.

Then they would give you a manjalitis tahap agung smile.

=)

And I will spend the next few minutes explaining why she needs to stay around longer. And later on will have only 2 kind of response.

1 - piss off face.
2 - look out way and merajuk face.

Sigh.

And the next day i’ll still appear before them asking for blood.

“Aduh, ambik lagi, tak nak laa.. Sakit laaaa..”

I can only manage a subtle smile. And kept quiet, but with hands moving, hoping to draw out something before they can react to that.

You might think that dealing with a lot of women would make my communicating skill better or at least know how to handle them in the future. I tell you, you are sooooo wrong. I never understand them. Weird.
