My contribution in the LGU-RHU was to help in
measuring pulse rate, respiratory rate , and cardio rate. I also help in measuring the waist and hip circumference of the patients. If there was a lot of patients , I was also the one writing the data in the medical record. Also, I helped fixed for the patients when I arrived very early in RHU.
I learned that working in the RHU is not easy task. You
must have patience , must also know how to handle different kinds of people. Even though there were many patients , and sometimes it was hectic, it was still fun since its not everyday that you get the chance to help.
