We all work in the same buildings, look at the same charts, and care for the same patients, but we often operate in completely isolated silos. It is incredibly easy to get frustrated with another department or cadre when a page goes unanswered, a med is delayed, a scan is pending, or a discharge takes forever, usually because we don't see the invisible hurdles everyone else is jumping over.

I want to open the floor for some broad perspective-sharing across the entire multidisciplinary team.

Whether you are a physician, nurse, pharmacist, APP, therapist (PT/OT/RT), or unit clerk,

What is the biggest systemic bottleneck in your specific role that people outside your cadre have absolutely no idea you are dealing with?

What is a common assumption or request others make of your department that drives you crazy because of how your workflow actually works?

What is one small thing another professional can do that makes your shift 10x easier?

I just survived a mandatory 60-minute "Physician Wellness and Resiliency" webinar hosted by an administrator who, as far as I can tell, hasn't seen a patient since the Clinton administration.

The irony of being told to "practice mindfulness" and "prioritize sleep" while the hospital is concurrently rolling out a new policy to administratively suspend anyone with H&Ps older than 24 hours (regardless of census or boarding issues) is… well, it’s a lot.

I’m currently sitting in the lounge at 7:00 PM, staring at a stack of consults and a "pajama time" charting debt that looks like a mortgage.

I’d love to be resilient, but I think I’d settle for an EMR that doesn’t require 14 clicks to order a basic electrolyte replacement and a management team that understands that documentation speed \neq quality of care.

Is anyone actually working in a system where the "efficiency metrics" aren't actively sabotaging the clinical work, or have we all just accepted our fate as highly-trained data entry clerks?

Anyway, I’m going back to the salt mines. If I get suspended for my records, at least I’ll finally get some sleep.

I have a friend who scored a C+ in highschool back in 2019, got placed by KUCCPS and pursued BA( English & Literature), he graduated last year, but now he wants to go back to highschool, aiming to score/qualify for MBCHB.

Is it possible now?

What will happen to his previous KSCE results and his degree certificate?

Does he starts from form 3 or 4?
