Latrine anthem #spm

Hola!

My ardent readers . I appreciate your patience for reading stuff which majority unabashedly hates but refuses to change.

The picture of the day :-

Yaay! Lovely ain't it?

Yuck! But we doctors study this . We are asked about this not only in the theory exams but also in viva.

The examiner : what are the methods of excreta disposal?

We sing it aloud , rap(e) it a little...

There are two main types

Sewered and unsewered ting ting

Unsewered is of three types la la la

Service when you have somebody to clean your poop

Non service that you and me use everyday

Temporary latrines for camps that I haven't used anyway

Non service is also known as sanitary latrine

It is again of five types

A Bore and a Pit that has Septic Aqua and a Waterseal

Waterseal is Sulabh so people PRAI (pray) that they find one in emergency because RCA is not everywhere!

It's bad I know . But memorising it is worst.

What annoys me the most is we are asked about it instead of prevention of major diseases. Which is neither asked in exams nor in the viva.

These books should be of use to people seeking a government job in municipal corporation.

Adios for now!

Experience Based Co Design : BCT Series XXIX

"Experience-Based Co-Design" we have all witnessed its essence unknowingly . My family home is the example I can reflect on .Growing up I didn't like how my house was designed. We (the whole extended family) wanted my dad to sell the house . Dad let his architect friend design our house and would not sell his house (for obvious reasons!). Mum had to balance out the situation so she decided to make small changes. So, it was one change idea each year .She would talk to us individually and listen to our perspective and review her sphere of influence and the impact /utility the idea had.For my siblings the colors were not welcoming while I pointed the flooring. Mum wanted the stairs to be personalised. My grandparents wanted certain conveniences around the toilets. It took her about 4-5 years to make the house a home that was acceptable . From color preferences to spatial arrangements, each family member contributed insights. The lovely thing about it was , the keystakehold...

Parallel Universe : BCT Series XXX

Two moments in the ED this week made me realize that I come from a parallel universe. One involved a teenage patient who had applied bronzer that I found while cleaning her skin for a IV cannula which left me surprised as I come from a part of the world where teenagers paint their skin with whitening agents to look more attractive. The second moment was during my teaching session on Organophosphorous poisoning, where I wondered if my accent was causing disengagement . However, I learned that it was simply a rare presentation of organophosphorous poisoning in this part of the world. It felt like I was narrating my adventures from a tropical trek! Have you ever had a moment where your cultural background clashed with your environment ?

First Night Shift Leading: Canvas Chaos to Calm Chap: BCT Series XXV

Hello All Ever had one of those nights where everything that could go wrong seems to do just that? Let me take you on a rollercoaster of candid chaos and unexpected brilliance, as I navigated my first night leading a shift in an unfamiliar center. Picture this: Stress levels through the roof, feeling like a fish out of water, and apologizing more times than I can count. My team's glances were a mix of skepticism and judgment, and I questioned every decision I made. Forgetfulness, clumsy mistakes, and endless apologies became the soundtrack of the night, and I found myself stumbling into the wee hours, going home much later than planned. The turning point came when I spilled my chaotic night to the senior who took over from me. His two cents were a revelation – insights, strategies, and a perspective that turned my canvas of confusion into a potential masterpiece. The consultant, in a one-on-one, shared even more wisdom on navigating the intricacies of a shift leader role. Feedback,...
