Stolen objects on MCG PEDS inpatient

[Debra MooreHill]

Hi, All in all the rotation at MCG inpatient general peds is enjoyable. But unfortunately, students were not informed that ITEMS ARE FREQUENTLY TAKEN. My personal jacket (Cream colored waist coat from GAP, moderately expensive) was taken from the Doctor's work area -- "Scooby pod" for those of you who are familiar. When searching frantically for anyone that had possibly seen it-- I was told that it is not uncommon for personal items to be taken from work areas and conference rooms (places only accessed by MCG Staff and Faculty) although none of us had been informed of this prior.
FYI - no items are really secure even if reassured by residents that its a safe place to leave things... Debra Moore-Hill
