II. Highlights during Post-Residency Deployment Program (PRDP)

During my residency deployment as internal medicine, I had the opportunity


to witness the invaluable significance of teamwork and professionalism within the
hospital environment. Collaborating seamlessly with nurses, specialists, and other
healthcare professionals, we formed a cohesive unit dedicated to delivering high-
quality patient care.
Amidst the challenges posed by the pandemic era, we adapted swiftly,
implementing stringent safety protocols while ensuring uninterrupted medical
services. As we navigated through these uncertain times, supporting our Chief of
Hospital and Chief of Clinics became paramount. Together, we worked tirelessly to
manage patient influx, allocate resources efficiently, and maintain staff morale.
Through it all, I am deeply grateful for the unwavering commitment and resilience
exhibited by my fellow health workers, whose dedication continues to inspire me
every day.

III. Challenges encountered and actions done


Considering that the hospital is a Level 1 institutions, we encounter various
challenges that required pro-active measures to address effectively. One significant
challenge was the limited resources available compared to larger facilities. To
mitigate this, we optimized resource allocation by prioritizing critical needs,
streamlining workflows and maximizing the utilization of available equipment and
personnel.

IV. Recommendations
A. For PRDP
Is to prioritize expediting the deployment process. Based on my experience, I
observe that it took three months from finishing residency training to deployment, which
is quite lengthy. Therefore, implementing measure to shorten this timeframe, such as
smooth administrative procedures and improving coordination between the program and
recipient hospital, would be greatly benefit both physician and healthcare institutions
involve.
B. The Recipient Hospital
The increase in patients due to COVID-19, it's essential to ensure that COVID
facilities are properly managed. This can be achieved by strengthening testing and
treatment facilities for COVID, enhancing safety protocols, and providing adequate
facilities and equipment for frontline workers. It's also important to have a robust system
for adherence to health and safety regulations to maintain the safety of both patients’
