It has been a month since last came here.
I am kind of stressed up at the moment yet I have no idea who should I share my feelings with. I probably know who I can share with but I guess the timing is not right to share with them.
The current neurophysiotherapy placement at Changi General Hospital hasn't been a good one. The placement is very different from all the other placements that I had thus far. I am finding myself hard to cope with it. I am not blaming anyone for the shortage of staff that the hospital is facing. However, it does have an impact on the students. It does make me feel very discouraged to be a physiotherapist in the near future.
I am not sure why I am so not motivated for this placement. I find it so difficult to make a point to figure out all the learning issues that are brought up daily. Sometimes, I feel that things are so overwhelmed and not related to the patients that I am seeing. It feels as if I am just learning the theories and I am not able to apply them. This kind of defeat the purpose of a placement.
The combination of the above factors makes me feel demoralised. The worst part of the whole situation was that our feedback was backfired.
I am also having a headache with NYP Netball team. The attendance has been pathetic and the coach hasn't been turning up either. I feel that the whole team is not coming together well physically to play POL-ITE. As a captain, I am not doing much to help with the situation. It is only some weeks away from POL-ITE. What should I do? Speak to the relevant people?
