The work is generally pretty simple, cleaning, sorting out patients rooms and making beds, but you get to chat to the nurses all the while, and the patients, and they make it fun.
The nurses are all obsessed with my height, my blue eyes and how pale I am. It was funny at first but now Im sick of 'eeeh kanojo wa takai desu!' and people pinching my cheeks..
The nurses and doctors are all really lovely, and whenever I dont have much to do theyre happy to chat to me, though none speak english. the nurses I follow are called Uemura-san (very lovely, and takes her time doing things) and Yoshiko-san (very funny, rushes around a lot)
Ive seen a few medical procedures, which are very interesting, including a lumbar puncture and bloods being taken. I cant wait till we get to watch an operation. We get to help out at the nursury on tuesdays, so im really excited for that cause the kids are so cute, and its just on the first floor of the nurses accomodation where we live.
