3/9 and 3/16

Last week, I helped clean the supplies closet. Today I washed gynecological instruments. Afterwards, I conducted a supply inventory of one of the rooms, which is surprisingly time consuming. It felt more personal to do a supply inventory in one of the patient rooms as those supplies are what the doctor(s) will use to help their patients heal. It feels really enjoyable to help those that are less fortunate then I am in an area that I'm interested in.

On Friday I went to orientation at the clinic. We took a tour around the clinic. The areas of patient care at the  clinic include primary care, dental care including preventive and restorative, and specialty care. The areas of speciality care include cardiology, endocrinology, neurology, orthopedics and other specialties. The clinic was very beautiful and I found out that it was fairly new as they had moved there about two years ago. We also watched a video from OSHA about preventing the spread of disease and pathogens. I'm in the medical area and I'll be doing supplies inventory. My first volunteering day is the upcoming Friday from two to four. I'm looking forward to it.
