| So hard to be returning to work after a vacation, but once I finally got there, it was ok. On Thursday I started my first block of outpatient medicine, which involves seeing clinic patients, and visiting community sites as well as specialty clinics--definitely a more relaxed atmosphere, and a different feel from hospital medicine. Unfortunately, I only have 2 weeks before being back on the wards until January.
Yesterday, there was an unexpected resident meeting: apparently, one of the interns suddenly quit. We did not discuss why's and how's of what happened, but the administration was trying to find ways to fill the gap in the workforce. |
