Employees at Dr Paulino J Garcia Memorial Research & Medical Center appreciate the numerous training opportunities provided, as well as the benefits offered. The heads of each department create a supportive environment by lecturing, showing specimens, and providing guidance. Employees also value the learning opportunities to identify specimens and learn from mistakes.
However, some potential challenges were noted, such as adapting to the high volume of patients and crowds at the public hospital setting, particularly when first starting. The commute distance from home to the medical center was also mentioned as a challenge by some employees. Additionally, adjusting to the new work environment of a public hospital took some time for certain employees.
