SP #1

It might be seldom but I'll try and post some info on the project.

My first official visit to a hospital, namely Gordon ( going to start using random names for hospitals/nursing homes! ) was good in terms of information gathering and extremely fruitful in experience.

The internal framework of a hospital is a world of that familiar yet intoxicating haunt of drugs and substances in the corridors of OT sections and similar spots. Right outside the theatre, the lounge area exists. Doctors A and B relaxed on the couch while C stood against the wall, all of them still in their scrubs and enjoying a screening of Chashme Baddhu on a tube propped against the wall. I sat there feeling a little uncomfortable in my scrubs. Face mask et al. But it felt lightweight compared to the kind of clothing we usually wear.

Doctors, nurses and other officials gave me an eyeful before smirking to themselves. That's alright. I'm a rookie in all this business. And they knew it. What probably got them amused was the manner in which I had tied the face mask, worn the head gear and maybe even the expression I had on my face.

Anyhow, things went smooth and the interview was nice too.
