The New Library

The Doctor’s Lounge at SJMC has just undergone refurbishment. And it is a welcomed one. Since joining almost a decade ago, it could do with a facelift. Yes, the Doctor’s sleeping accommodations has definitely been upgraded. But the main thing I was looking forward to was the upgraded library and quiet area.

On mornings when I don’t have a clinic, I used the old library quite a bit. During the refurbishment period, the lounge was allocated temporarily to our old Chemotherapy Day Care. It does not have a quiet room. The times when I had to take up videoconferences were nightmares. I can even record my videos there with the new library, and nobody would bother - hopefully.

It had a nice comfortable conference desk, for some serious work. There was even a coffee machine ... The colour scheme is a bit dull, but I am OK with that. I might bring along my headphone the next time I have some heavy work to do. I hope.

A welcomed addition. There is also a nap area with comfortable sofa right at the back, but it was too cold. I had to adjust the air-conditioning there the last time I took a power nap. More productive days ahead I hope!
