It is well acknowledged that on many days, the PATIENT FOOTFALLS in our clinic are quite low , on a comparitive basis. The reasons are many, however, let’s enumerate some of these causative factors :
It’s a vacation time for kids and their families are out of town. There are social events like Marriage or Religious functions in the patient’s family. The weather in the city is unsuitable for a clinic visit : extreme heat or heavy rains. Parents are engaged either in Office / Kitchen routines and our Kids are either at School or attending an Online Tuition Class. Fortunately, Lockdowns are a forgotten entity, off late
All these varied factors are pretty discomforting for us – clinicians – just because, 
we are wedded to our clinic timings , rather too religiously….. 
Many of us, however keep themselves busy – by socializing on Whatsapp and other chatting options like Facebook or Instagram, which is just a time killer.
Let’s explore, how we can constructively use these spare hours. to our advantage 
We can keep a Textbook or the latest Journal on our desk, for an overview of our choice topics. YOUTUBE and GOOGLE apps are my favourite pastime, in these dull hours. Exploring new terminologies on Google is a good idea. Pharma info on MEDICINES , along with their brand names is another enriching idea. YOUTUBE is a treasure trove of MUSIC from all over the globe and you have your choices to listen and create your PLAYLISTS for transferring to a pen drive for use during car journeys. I have found another interesting YouTube Category called VLOGS, that give you a VIRTUAL TOUR of all historical places in India, that can be quite General Knowledge enhancing . Free hours help you to visit and upgrade your Accounts File and your Patient Records – online or offline. One can also check the functioning of Hospital Gadgets and segregate the Medicine and Vaccine Stocks which are closer to Expiry Dates. This is surely an offbeat Blog that applies equally to all clinicians – very busy or otherwise. This is surely an offbeat Blog that applies equally to all clinicians – very busy or otherwise.
Dull hours in a clinic time schedule are quite depressing – if we have not generated a lucid game plan to tackle this ongoing and repetitive problem. Motive of this Blog : Inactive Mind is a Devil’s Workshop. Therefore, keep busy implementing bright ideas, for sustaining your self confidence at peak levels. You can suggest your personalised style of how to tackle this boredom on my Whatsapp number.
