Observing Prenatal Check Up
In this project (Projek Katakan Cinta), I try to share a story with my husband about practicing in several hospitals in Taiwan. One of them is observing prenatal checkup at Shin Kong Wu Ho-Su Memorial Hospital. I told him how the physician or the nurse do the observation of prenatal checkup.
Firstly, we got an introduction from the head of the nurse, she described about the whole hospital including the history of the hospital.
Secondly, she took us to go around the hospital, especially for prenatal care ward for maternal mother who want to check their babies. For the prenatal check up, generally its quite same with the hospital in my region (in my country) but there are some differences. In Taiwan, especially in Shin Kong Wu Ho-Su Memorial Hospital, the patient using their cards (National Health Insurance) to do the administration. When the patient come to the ward, they can directly check their physical their selves such us checking the blood pressure, the weight and height. The result will be immediately recorded and the doctor can access it. Then the doctor will give the treatment (consultation) based on the number of the patients register theirselves using the NHI cards. The nurse also explained about times for doing the antenatal care to us. She explained about the NHI, NHI will cover over 10 times for the antenatal care and also for the USG. Its different with my country, we still need to pay for USG, because health insurance doesn’t cover it.
Then the nurse guided us to the other rooms, they explained about the immunization (Vaccinne) for the babies and we discussed about it. There are some differences about the immunization beetwen Taiwan and Indonesia. In Taiwan, getting imumunization is very important and to be one of the requirements before applying the school, in my country, immunization is getting sensitive due to different culture. Some of people will refuse their babies to get the immunization cause some cultures and reasons (it still to be our challenge to encourage them to allow their babies to get the vaccination). For the BCG vaccination, in my country also will perform in the 1-2 months of baby age but in Taiwan is 5 months after birth.
Mempunyai kesempatan untuk melihat langsung bagaimana sistem kesehatan di beberapa rumah sakit di luar negri khususnya di Taiwan membuatku semakin bersyukur dan lebih berfikir secara terbuka. Tentu, disetiap negara mempunyai prosedur atau sistem kesehatan yang berbeda. Kita manusia harus terus belajar dan update segala ilmu yang kita miliki sebelumnya. Aku merasa jika aku masih jauh tertinggal jika dibandingkan dengan teman-temanku yang mempunyai banyak pengalaman. Namun, aku juga bersyukur dengan ilmu yang aku miliki saat ini. Hal terpenting dari semua itu adalah bagaimana aku bisa memanfaatkan ilmu ini sebaik mungkin dan bisa terus mengembangkan serta mempelajari apa yang seharusnya terus dipelajari dalam kehidupan ini. Jangan pernah sombong, karena kita akan tahu betapa bodohnya kita ketika kita menemui hal baru atau ilmu baru.
