Our Colourful Board

This is our Ward 21 board... its FULL :) .. this is usual, for us, and with 28 patients.. we have at least 2 nurses working in one shift.

As you can see from the above picture, we have few colours on board.. those are the codes :). Usually early in the morning when the Medical Officers come to start their round, they will stop by at our counter and check on their patients according to the colours. 

As far as I know, the ward was actually coded BAY by BAY (Bay is the bigger section of the beds cubicle), but some patients has their priority, for e.g. needs of oxygen bed etc, therefore, its all jumbled up and scattered all over, but then again, we are trying our best to put the same colour code in one BAY as, each bay is usually being delegated to one NURSE. (eh macam tunggang tebalik kan ayat ku heheh). 

Therefore when a group of ONE colour is placed in one bay, that will make us easier, to follow the doctor's when they are doing their routine rounds, especially, when the foreign doctors who need translation are doing their rounds, 'cos when they don't see any nurse accompanying them they'll start "NURSE! WHo's doing rounds with me?" hahaha.. kesian kan.. :)

So that's all for now, re: Colour Coding.. I'll update some more on introduction to our Ward Management system ... (The Basic ones lah hehehe)

Welcome to Ward 21 and 22 - Male Medical Ward

WAKTU MELAWAT

The Internal Medicine Wards are basically, well known as the "Medical" ward, actually consist of the Female Medical Wards (Ward 19 and Ward 20), Male Medical Wards (Ward 21 and Ward 22), and The Neurology and Respiratory ward (Ward 4 - Mix Ward).

Our ward (Ward 21 and 22) is now merged, as one ward, where Ward 22 made as the ACUTE BAY and First Class rooms (only few available 'cos most of it are made as general room, in view of shortage of bed), where we receive new acute cases which needs close monitoring and those stable cases will be monitored in Ward 21. 

Our Cases :

Gastroenterology - Coded RED

Oncology - Coded RED

Endocrinology - Coded GREEN

Rheumatology - Coded GREEN

Cardiology - Coded YELLOW

Nephrology / Renal - Coded PINK

Cases we received (when there's no vacant bed in Ward 4):

Neurology - Coded BLUE

Respiratory - Coded BLUE

As claimed, we have the largest number of nurses working per shift, (excluding the ICU's nurses), also, we have the largest number of bed (it can reach up to 60 beds, includes the bunga which sometimes we make it up as a general room). Apart from having all these, we have made our best to meet up every patient's daily needs as patients' needs (physically and mentally) are our first priority. 

Until then, I will update some more.. SOON! ;)
