As a student nurse who started a 3 year diploma course (2025) I received the utmost disrespect and criticism from Surgical Ward 2.
Hi. I'm a student nurse who is now in my forth month of studying and was allocated to Ahmed Al Kadi Private Hospital to complete my hours for the month of July. My first 2 weeks was at Surgical Ward 1 which was the most brilliant experience I've had at that hospital. The staff was pleasant,they knew my name and even understood my potential. However when I was moved to Surgical Ward 2 I finally understood the difference between those 2 wards. Most of the staff at Surgical Ward 2 were disrespectful to me,they didn't know my name; they claimed that my name was too difficult to pronounce or that it was such an unusual name hence they started calling me as "hey" or "hello" or even "Aisha" which isn't even close to it. The Unit Manager of that ward gave me the worst critic imaginable that it honestly broke my confidence and stride as a further RN. She claimed that I was *********** and that I'm a hazard to a patient's life just before I didn't use a torch to check the actual refraction of light in a patient's eye during an admission process. I told her that the nurses in her ward told me to indicate it as 3mm as that's the normal reading so I listened because I'm a student literal fresh out of high school. This Unit Manager never once asked me how was my experience in her ward,never shadowed me in any procedure to see if I was competent and never offered go teach me. All she did was sit at her desk and dictate or talk about a vacation that she was going too. Since this Unit Manager has never seen me work and interact with patients how does she know if I'm doing the right thing or not? Well here's the tea, an Assistant nurse supposedly complained about me only being on one side of the ward and I wasn't helping her with anything. This assistant nurse never asked for my help yet she is being a reporter of false news to her Unit Manager. Honestly I thought working or enquiring training at a private hospital would be great. But the only think good about this hospital was that it is clean and hygienic. But yet the staff themselves stink. And I've done my hours at a government hospital and I never received this kind of treatment there. At the government hospital they were willing to teach me and I was respected and I felt needed. All I can say is that I hope when other nursing students attend this hospital they shouldn't get this kind of treatment that I've had. Because it honestly breaks a confident and compassionate person inside.
