Hospital tour

The week in Pori ends. Although during these past few days my english has imrpoved it is still lacking of vocabulary and sentence structure 
Hospital tour
We visited Pori hospital on Monday. It was my first expereince here and it was very interesting for me. 
Within the hospital we saw intensive care ward, the emergency department, a general medical ward and a diabetic ward.
The Emergency ward in Pori hospital was very quiet and It is my opinion that sorting patients in a process of triage is verz efficient.Unlike Finland, in CR triage nurses do not exist. Only a receptionist is available to do this process, and this person only detects why a patient has come to hospital, and details of what has happend to him and than she send him to the doctor. But I did not practice at emergency setting as yet. One nurse takes care of about three patients in Pori hospital, similar in Czech republic. Nurses use technical advances in Finland, and I think that it is same in every country in Europe. Intensive care unit is full of technical equipment which is needed to save lives. This equipment is placed in vicinities of the workspace unlike in CR - nurses have it only in one room - it makes hard organization of work and chaos. In medical ward were a videocamera to monitoring people in isolation room. This was very useful for the nurse because she knows about patient state all the time, while minimising unecessary contact with infectious pathogens. Shifts in Pori hospital are divided into three shifts of eight hours each, one hour being used to give over.We have only two shifts from 6 am. to 6 pm, which sometimes may be long and tiring. Finally I would like to say that the medical system in the Czech republic needs to improve and develop further, however it depends on money, political system, but also on access and openness of nurse, doctors and patients to change.
