Some problems of a medical receptionist I work as a medical receptionist in a federal children's polyclinic. I worked in another polyclinic before. Sometimes dificulties happen. There is often temprorary or permanent lack of doctors in federal polyclinics. If a polyclinic offers same-day appointments, some people take a queue in 4 am. If there is an opportunity to make a doctor's appointment through the internet, few people catch the talons in seconds, other people can't catch them. They say that that ways of making doctor's appointment are bad, but if a polyclinic has enough of doctors, it is easy to make it anyway. Sometimes we have pity for those who has been unsuccesful in making an appointment for a long time and try to find a way-out. People often don't take all the documents that are needed to be added to the polyclinic's database. But we have strict raquirements. All the doctors use computers now. The program don't allow them to work without all the requested data. If a patient hasn't all the needed documents, we try to find a way-out or reschedule the appointment. Patients don't like that. Several years ago there were patients that were afraid of filling consent to personal data processing blanks. Now it happens very rarely. Nervous patients often vent their frustration on medical receptionists as if we are to blame for their inability to make an appointment with a doctor or we personally come up with strict requirements. But not all the patients act like that. Some of them are polite, grateful and responsible. What problems do patients or medical receptionists have in your country?

Dog on the beach I had a vacation in a village in the south of Russia called Makopse. There were a little mountain river falling into the sea and a pond on the beach near the river. There lived a dog. I didn’t know whether he had an owner, but he wasn’t thin and hungry. He went to the beach to lie in the sun and swim in the pond (he never went in the sea). Sometimes he froliced and played with different things that could be found on the beach, for example, wilted seaweed or sticks. Sometimes he found people who wanted to play with him. When it was storming, and people went to the river to swim, the dog went there too. He was kind and tender. It was obviously that the dog enjoyed life.
