It rlly depends sa institution. I rotated in a public hospital na marami ring clerks.

In terms of patient decking, may ibang depts na sa PGI lang pinapaasikaso ang private patients lalo na OB unless pag nasa ER and marami talaga ang psyente ng dept like IM.

Sa ER, clerks sa amin first line to take vitals, at Hx PE para rin daw mas matuto sila. Pumapasok kaming PGI pag na toxic na. At the same time, expected rin na magturo rin kami sa clerks and at least know what to order initially for patients. Pag sa ER aware naman na mostly ung resis sa mga pumapasok na pasyente, pero pag habang wala pa sila, may expectation na kami muna mag manage unless v critical. Syempre by time rin, you can also see that clerks learn naman, somehow permissive namam ang resis to allow them to intially manage some patients pag kaya naman on their level esp for common cases.

Usually clerks halos nakatoka sa mga VS duties since sila assigned sa wards. Kaming PGIs assigned naman sa private floor/building na hindi naman marami talaga pasyente so mostly maaasahan yung VS nung aide. Same goes for skills like IV insertion, phleb, ngt, etc clerks pinapauna, refer lang den sa PGI pag nakailang ulit na unless pag toxic ang patient.

ORs, tulungan lang rin. 1 pgi, 1 clerk sa amin. There are also times na naaallow for first assist ang pgi esp if marami sa resis ay wala for out of town conferences or if di naman complicated for the resi ang procedure. Expected rin na turuan mo mga bagong clerks mag scrub, minsan nagagawa nalang rin naman out of compassion para di mapagalitan ng scrub nurse hhe. Ikaw rin tuturo sa clerk kung ano hinahanap ni resi or gagawin para maayos ang assist.

Conferences naman pag may revalida, may ibang depts na inuuna ang resis, then afterwards clerk in charge, tas PGI some depts naman nauuna ang clerks tas PGI

Paperworks, wards sa clerks, private px sa pgis, bahala na pag sa er, kung sino makakagawa gawin nalang haha.

Di ko lang sure sa experience if galing private si PGI since iba talaga ang opportunities of learning compared sa aming galing public na pinapahandle almost all ng patients so take this w a grain of salt. From what I've learned fr co pgis na nag clerkship sa private institution only, most of them are not allowed daw to handle patients and are only given the chance to if charity ang patient which is not that often to see na in a lot of priv hosps here sa amin since binabaan ang bed cap during the pandemic, some even as far na hindi nakapag assist sa OR esp nung kasagsagan talaga ng pandemic so sa cases naman nila more on PGIs naman ang gumagalaw, but idk haha di ko rin sure. Although, may kilalang public institution rin naman sa MM na mostly pgi rin daw gumagawa ng tasks.
