You'll have one or two nurses that have a really heavy load, and we all come together and we go, and we help that nurse. You never leave anyone stranded or alone. I kind of felt like that's what it was like in New York, just on a much larger scale. These nurses have a huge, heavy load. They're trying to do it on their own.

I had been out of the ICU for about a year working as a case manager. They were talking about anybody who was an ICU nurse, like, they may end up having to pull them back into the ICU to work.

We were waiting for papers under our door to tell us where we were going to go, and what shift we were going to work. That was a little bit stressful at the beginning. But that's how things are in a situation like this. It's a disaster, it's an emergency situation. On the second day that I was here, I got my notification of where I was going, and what I would be doing, and everything.

We got in, they put us all in a room, they made sure everybody had their hospital login numbers, and IDs, and stuff. I'm trying to think where we went after that. We watched a video. We watched a video on their charting system, which luckily, I've used that charting system for years. So that was nice. They took us up to do the computer learning modules that are required of every single place that you go, like the HIPAA and the OSHA and active shooter, and all that kind of stuff. They took us around individually to get our badges for the hospital, our name badges. Everything's locked down. Even people that work at the hospital that have worked there for years, if they show up and they don't have their name badge, they get held in security until someone in an authoritative position with a name badge can go down there and verify that they work there and get them. Your name badge is so important. We did practical skills, like checking off on our glucometers, donning and doffing PPE, 'cause that's super important, and making sure that you know how to put it on and then take it off appropriately because, when most people get exposed to the virus in a healthcare setting, it's usually when you're taking off your PPE, if you take it off incorrectly. We did that kind of stuff in the afternoon. And then we met in a meeting room that evening ,and we filled out a paper that told them basically what our skills were. Then they gave us placement in the hospital based on our skill set.\n\n","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://queenslibrary.aviaryplatform.com/collections/943/collection_resources/44054/file/117311#t=363.0,493.0"},{"id":"https://queenslibrary.aviaryplatform.com/collections/943/collection_resources/44054/file/117311/transcript/29286/annotation/15","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\nMeral Agish: What was first placement?\n\n","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://queenslibrary.aviaryplatform.com/collections/943/collection_resources/44054/file/117311#t=493.0,496.0"},{"id":"https://queenslibrary.aviaryplatform.com/collections/943/collection_resources/44054/file/117311/transcript/29286/annotation/16","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\nTatum Middleton: My placement is in the medical ICU.

All the patients were ventilated; the ER was folding 80 to 100 ICU holds down there on ventilators. The telemetry floors had all been converted to ICU. It was basically two ventilated patients per room. The area I work in is the actual ICU of the hospital. We were full with ICU patients there, and then there's an overflow area to it that hadn't been opened. They had opened that up and it was also full of ICU patients. There is another side that just takes normal patients after they have, like a heart procedure, or something like that. They turned that also into an ICU, and also that stepdown area into an ICU.

You don't have all those resources right there, but they've done an amazing job with what they have, and the way that they've set it up, and everything. It blows my mind how well they've responded to this. The biggest thing is that normally, in an ICU, you'll have an intensivist that is there all the time taking care of the patients.

Something else that I didn't think about is, normally the ER and the ICU are the only places that are sending certain labs down to lab. Now, the whole hospital is an ICU, so a lab that would normally take 10 minutes to get back, because only the ICU or the ER is sending it, sometimes, it could take up to five hours to get those results back because the whole hospital sending those labs in. Drips for patients, same thing. Pharmacy is completely overwhelmed with the amount of drips that they're having to send out.
