I recently graduated in medicine from Townsville, Australia, and I still enjoy writing blogs on medicine and pharmacy-related topics. I appreciate writing about my experience on different placements or topics I'm interested in. As English is my second language, writing blogs is a hobby and a fun challenge!

An ISBAR is a recognised and effective method to deliver handovers practically to another person/team. The ISBAR is simple, quick-to-use, memorable and portable. It is designed to have a logical, structured approach in providing concise and easy-to-understand information, making communication more effective and streamlined.
Medicine is often described as an interdisciplinary profession where a medical practitioner is usually and often interacting with many other healthcare professions. Hence, the ability to communicate effectively not just to patients but to other colleagues of similar profession and other professions is crucial.
My admiration for medicine came from a Professor Barau who had inspired and enhanced positively my perception towards medicine along with all the complicated and tedious aspects that come with the medical profession.
I had to explore how a general practice ran as a primary health care and its management to the doctors and the delivering of care. I had to talk about how the doctors went about their days, their communication, their body language, the pharmaceutical care plan that was chosen and how to have a successful consultation.
