EXCELLENT LEARNING CURVE

Working for the Department of work needs somebody who is on their toes 24/7. It is a difficult Department to work in as it deals with peoples lives. You get complaints almost every single day irrespective of which office you are in. You need to be able to assist people by directing them to the right official, clinic, hospital or District. It is very important to know the medical terminology as to know what they are talking about. The Health Department has taught me a lot, I have learnt to work with people and also work independently, I have learnt to work under pressure, I have learnt to understand the departmental Cash flow as I am also a member of the Cash-flow Committee for the office of the Head of Health.

Pros: GREAT EXPERIENCE
Cons: long working hours

Excellent learning curve, great company culture

The hospital exposed me to a variety of departments and how they operate. Great corporate culture, the relationship between employees was great. A few challenges here and there but nothing we couldn't deal with. Opportunities for growth are very limited, easily reached my ceiling.

Pros: Vast exposure
Cons: Very little opportunities for promotions

Good for experience

I currently work in the emergency and accident department. On a day to day basis I manage emergency cases, investigate and treat appropriately. We have to work as team, and due to my position, I am the team leader in order to manage the patients effectively. We have to always work as a team, and working under pressure effectively is of vital importance. Every week, we check and report on stock levels to assist the nursing manager in ordering necessary medication and consumables necessary for the smooth operation of the department. Once a month, we present our statistics for the department to the rest of the hospital using one of the tools for reporting provided to us for this purpose.

Pros: Good working comradeship
Cons: Little opportunity to grow and develop
