Hard work. Repetitive on nature
Working in a government clinic is fulfilling in terms of helping those that would ordinarily not have the funds to access my service. It is just frustrating in terms of low pay and lack of adequate resources
Pros: Flexible working hours
Cons: No opportunity for promotion

Right to Care Projects Launched
The pilot launch of the Medication Error project was successful ( less than p < 0.05 mistakes ) during the latter months of the year 2014 , when a large number of patients, were getting ready to travel to far away destinations for the holiday season. This was not possible if it were not for the great group of staff members that functioned as a unit , the diligance to work under pressure conditions , strict record keeping , the follow up on problem cases and make recommendations ( solutions ) to improve the recovery time of patients, and draft guidelines to prevent erros in the future.
Pros: Pharmacovigilance Opportunities
Cons: Logistical challenges with the Down Referral system

Many obstacles with very good learning curves.
My responsibilities as a community service medical officer include patient consultations, working with nurses and allied health professionals if referrals are needed as well as supervision of interns. Overtime work is done in the emergency department at a community healthcare centre. A typical work day involves seeing 40 patients on average. I have a strong relationship with my coworkers, due to the fact that we see a large number of patients daily, good team work and communication are skills I polished well.
Pros: Confidence in terms of self reliance and decision making.
Cons: Large volumes of patients to be seen in a short staffed unit, as well as a lack of resources.

Excellent team builder and leader
I'm a fun loving person who loves working hard. I don't tolerate incompetence, I believe in working towards improving yourself no matter the circumstances or difficulties. I know and believe that I am a good leader. I always lay a foundation to build on., do that and you will always be great and ready for all that comes your way. Lack of growth is a problem where I work, not enough opportunities for young people and not enough change to help build the institution or make life easier for all.
Pros: Exposure
Cons: Lack of opportunities

My most ever challenging working time
Having worked for a state department that was at the time that I joined having a bad image and targeted by everyone including political parties, I was confronted by a big task of rebuilding the reputation and inspire confidence of the public, especially those who use public health facilities. My colleagues assisted a lot because I couldn’t do this task alone. I learnt that patience, team work, and thorough research are key to the kind of work I’m supposed to do. I enjoyed my interaction with journalists and fellow colleagues, especially my subordinates who showed me support at all times. I was mostly challenged by a situation where I couldn’t get information and not meeting deadlines.
Pros: Great opportunity to excel and do what I like
Cons: No time for family and social life
