IT problems

Friday January 20th
IT is definitely not one of Kagando’s strong points! This morning in Out Patients a long queue of patients rapidly accumulated. A new computer system has been introduced just a month ago with linked computers in the cashier’s office and the registration desk in Out Patients. Fine in principal but in fact the computer in Out Patients doesn’t work while the Cashiers office computer is being used! Hopefully a solution can be worked out soon.

I feel like I have been yo-yoing between the medical wards and outpatients today which I hope has been of some value to the more junior staff.Last night we had a bible study meeting with many of the expatriate and local medical staff. The meeting was very helpful and encouraging. One of the things I have been impressed with on this visit is the improving working relationship between local and expatriate staff.

For the medically minded I know you love a little quiz! This small boy had been coughing for a week. What is the diagnosis?
