First week of LI

First week of LI or Industrial Training in English means a lot to me and 2 of my coursemate, Jenny and Sheila.

First day of LI (10th May 2010), we arrive at the lab of Kuching Specialist Hospital around 7.40 a.m. Entering the lab seems like nobody was around. So we just sit on the chair in the waiting area of the lab. Around 8.00 a.m then the lab manager a.k.a our supervisor came out of his office. Then he asked us to follow him to his office. So he started off with some briefing on the rules and regulation of the lab. After that he handed over each of us one schedule that he had prepared for us. So I was attach to Urinalysis and Hematology section for 2 weeks, Jenny at Serology section and Sheila at Microbiology section. So we started off our day by doing what we suppose to do with some guidance from the MLTs e.g labelling sample and key-in patient info, process sample etc. At the same time we learned a lot through some information sharing from our supervisor and the MLTs. We also had some fun working together with some jokes around. For the rest of the week we do what we have been told to do.

So for the second week, I still not sure what we'll be facing, but just leave it to faith.
