Was taught a lot in this hospital

Management cares less for the employees. They are fast when it comes to discipline but aren't giving positive feedback when something good was done by the empl

Productive and an exciting workplace

Typical day would be productive in making sure all patients are taken care of and there are no complaints and each patient has recieved their medication and are clear on all queries, I have learned that people are more understanding when they have the right information about things that concern them, it is alwasy wise to be kind and give a smile and always remain calm in any situation when dealing with people. Management did a great job of teaching us the required experience needed to complete our inservice training and the work culture ther involved a lot of team work which was great because that taught me tolerance and panctuality. The hardest part about the job was dealing with diffucult clients who refused to understand that hospitals also have a set of rules that they adhere to, having to explain the procedure with the person not understanding the importance of why such standards are set made it difficult to deal with the patients. The most enjoyable part of my job was seeing different people on a daily and having to interact with them, I love being around an environment where I get to be around people cause I love working with people.

Pros

Many departments within the institution, They allow for rotation of positions, Exposure to various duties and responsibility, You are assigned a supervisor/mentor, You work flexible hours, You are able to attend school, Working environment is friendly, They provide inservice training

Cons

Hospital Environment, could esily get sick as there is no protective gear for administrators

consultants willing to teach and impart knowledge

normal 8-4 pm shifts, worst part was doing the overtime in casualty asit can get really busy. Generally warm and welcoming staff. I learnt about ethical patient management in an acute setting, outpatient setting and ward setting.

very productive workplace .the management needs to improve their management skills

great place to gain experience but interns are overworked and when they are done with their internships they don't get certificates. but so far I enjoy being part of their team, I've learned a lot from them.

The workplace teaches one to be able to work under intense pressure

The units are overcrowded but understaffed. The place teaches one to be a good team player as the team needs everyone's effort to have a productive outcome

Pros

Great people to learn from

Cons

Overcrowded

A joyful and productive working experience

I work with a team of young vibrant and energetic staff, they are very welcoming and are open to assisting me adapt well in the workplace.We get along so well as they are very professional and at the same time very outspoken and fun to be around.The reason why the team is cohesive its primarily due to the leader,my boss is very knowledgeable and is always open to assisting and helping out were she can in order for our department to become the best .I learn everyday in this hospital not only professionally but personally too.

Pros

good teamwork

Cons

productive and enjoyable

I work with very united and supportive staff, it gets hard to choose or award one best employee of the month because they all energetic, with the management I learnt not rely on them too much because they turn to drop the bomb on you and expect you to come up with solutions of everything, WOW! the most enjoyable part is when its one of the staff's birthday or birth month, we gather on the last Friday of the month and share the day together as a department.

Cons

time keeper

Good learning experience

My community service year at Pholosong allowed me the opportunity to gain experience in the practical field of dietetics. It provided time to gain independence and experience in the different fields such as paediatrics, surgery, ICU and medical.

Pros

Experience in different areas

Cons

Small working environment

Team building makes my staff as united as one big happy family

friday is a very typical day for me because i have to check with every department if htey will be sorted for the weekend and on mondays are also typical because i have to report all the challenges and request for the past week and believe me you the management is always not happy when there is money to be spent. I learnt that if you need to be a good leader you must let yourself to be led. I enjoy working with the staff i have, they always think ahead, they priotirize their work. The hardest part is when i have to come up with a solution like immediately, i.e. an Anaesthestic machine in theatre stucks at 22H00 night and the operation is on process, they call you to come and assess it, oh gosh. I love it when i succesfully reach the target without any complains.

Pros

Some companies do bring lunch after the successful business relation

Cons

I do work long hours to get my job done effectively without any overtime payment gain.

very productive and gives you family time

a typical day would be me clocking in and checking if there are any suppliers coming in that day. verifying stock and checking e mails from clients. i learnt being a team player is important in a working enviroment and the management at pholosong is very caring and supportive. everyone at pholosong hospital is friendly and we work well as team and we support each other in what we do. the hardest part of this job is the counting of stock and the most enjoyable is that fridays we get to knock off early.

Pros

free lunch

Cons

counting of stock
