Thanks for the feature. And to @MarieBrenner for telling our story.

4 mo ago we transformed our hospital to care for an unprecedented # of critically ill #COVID pts. Many recovered. Some remain. But staff have yet to heal. The horrors my colleagues around the country face —we don’t have #PTSD because the trauma hasn’t stopped.

Lessons learned in MICU #COVID week 3. 1–bed capacity is easy, staffing is hard. 2-My hospital/college/city are coming together like never before—in ways that will endure beyond this crisis 3–balancing pt safety and staff safety feels impossible. 4–work from home if you can.
