Being in part of the medical industry isn’t always easy. Sometimes I get to face some of the most disgusting things I should not encounter if I only pursue my lifelong dream of being an Engineer. But, it’s too late to continually contemplate over things I cannot undo.
Anyway, some people say that I will get used to seeing gross things. For years of doing what I am doing, all I can say is that indeed there are times I forget about those feelings. But, there are instances that I can no longer eat my food because of disgusting odors and visuals. And, that will continue until I can’t take a long shower. It seems like the thoughts and the smell sticks to my being until it’s washed away with clean water and a good amount of soap.
Well, this only stands true when I am assigned in wound care management especially in burn and diabetic patients. I won’t go into details why I don’t like this area. But, I don’t complain when I am assigned here because I still love my work even if this is the case. There are just times when I can’t seem to take the challenges I face in this area.
Luckily, the company implements shifting methods and reassigns us to different areas all the time. So, I am not confined in one single area the entire year.
