The forum I visit for pda and computer

PDA and GPS

www.lowyat.net you can find a lot of update in technology in Malaysia and you also get IT stuff cheap in the garage sale forum ( www.lelong.com.my or www.ebay.com.my are another internet trade zone where you can buy cheap stuffs)

www.ppcsg.com I personally think it is best ever site for My Samsung I780

http://www.xda-developers.com is the website full of official rom and cooked rom

www.ipmart-forum.com You can download whatever software for window mobile, palm os,symbian and java programme for your phone.

http://www.malsingmaps.com is forum where I gained my GPS knowledge from

http://www.malfreemaps.com you can get latest Malaysia map

www.pda4x.com is the forum where u can download any GPS software and maps for your WinMo, PNA, symbian devices.

Computer

I do not have specific website to recommend. When I have any problem regarding computer, I will google it. For an example, recently, many encounter problem in msn ( keyport problem and bla, bla , bla , all the error code xxxxxxx appear ). Just google error code ( e.g. google 8844022 msn error) and find solution from expert. Follow step by step, most of the time , problem can be sloved. You also can get whatever software ( freeware, shareware) by “googling” it. Another example, google “how to uninstall certain antivirus software ( avast, nod32 and etc.)” if u can not uninstall that software. I still remember that one computer expert say there is nothing that you cannot manage to search in internet. I partially believe that, as long as you put effort to search, you will get it finally.

I think it is better to teach to fish instead of giving fish like our lecturer told us every day. So, start fishing ( but not phising-what does it mean, try to google it) today ^ ^.

Hospice / palliative care

This term is quite new to all the people including even the doctor or health care worker. I myself heard that patient have misconception that hospice is hospital service. Since my friends and I were attached to KASIH HOSPICE during our elective, I have learned what the hospice really is.

Palliative care is an approach that improves the quality of life of patients and their families facing the problem associated with life-threatening illness, through the prevention and relief of suffering by means of early identification and impeccable assessment and treatment of pain and other problems, physical, psychosocial and spiritual. It was founded by Dame Cicely Saunder (we are asked about this when we first met the doctor in charge)

In simple words, hospice or palliative care provide care to patient and family member holistically (biopsychosocial-spiritual or physical , mental, social and spiritual )so that patient have end stage of life with dignity and without suffering. Meantime, hospice helps family member to cope with loss of beloved till bereavement. In KASIH, Dr simplify this as 全人,全家,全程 (whole human being, whole family, whole journey in chinese)

Thus, as health care worker, we should NEVER NEVER tell patient that you have nothing to do to help him or her, leaving him unattended or disappointed. When we do not know how to handle this situation, please refer them to hospice unit. Click this link http://www.sabah.org.my/mhc/members.htm to see the location of the hospice centers in Malaysia. we went to KASIH HOSPICE CARE SOCIETY (KHC) which cover Rawang, Damansara, Sg Buloh.

Following is the detail of KHC

74, Jalan 14/29, Section 14
46100 Petaling Jaya, Selangor

Tel: (603) 7960 7424
Fax: (603) 7956 6442

E-mail: admin@kasih-hospice.org

Website: http://www.kasih-hospice.org/

President: Dr Goh Pik Pin

During the attachment, we really learned a lot and enjoyed it. If the day of birth is of so much significance, then it should be the same for the day of death (which is quoted by leong, I personally like this very much). So, my friend, be holistic and skillful while dealing with the terminally ill patient. Last but not least, see u guy and put effort in our final year.
