First week

December 12-14, 2012

       

         My first week as a trainee at East Avenue Medical Center (EAMC) was such an unexpected experience. What I have experienced at Jose N. Rodriguez Memorial Medical Hospital (JNRMMH) last summer was way too far from what I am having right now at EAMC.

       After the orientation, she assigned me at the heart station where electrocardiogram (ECG) and 2D echocardiogram is taken. I met Ms. Olive, Ms. Lunaria, Mr. Garcia, Mr. Morales, and Ms. Nadado. They are the staff of the heart station. From there, they thought me a lot of things specially on ECG, on how to process the papers for 2D echo, how to give order of payment for the patients, how to file the results of ECG and 2D echo, and how to release the results. At first, it was a surprised because I do not know about what I am going to do, but as the days go by, I am starting to love my job.
