And we’re so grateful for all that they’re doing to keep us safe. Today, I’ll be sharing the story of a physician on the frontlines, Dr. Sherene Fakhran.⁣ ⁣ Dr. Fakhran specializes in pulmonary and critical care and has been working at @cookcountyhealth Hospital in Chicago for the last ten years. These last few months have been difficult, but she credits the efforts of the entire hospital - the doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, custodians, and support staff - for doing their part to keep the hospital going to tend to COVID-19 patients in critical need. ⁣ ⁣ Dr. Fakhran shares more about her experience while working in the intensive care unit at Cook County Health: “A big part of what we do in the ICU is to communicate and build a relationship with the patients and families. Speaking with families has become more challenging. We also try to facilitate video calls with patients and families to help them feel connected or at times say goodbye. Although, I have been working with critically ill patients for many years, this experience has been very emotional.”⁣ ⁣ “What gives me the most hope is how people have come together to support in whatever way they can––from bringing in food to making PPE for our staff. All the providers in our division have also done an outstanding job staying positive, supporting each other, and rising up to the challenge. Most importantly, seeing some of our sickest patients recover and actually go home has been the best feeling of all.”」5月9日 3時38分
