And it was so interesting to see how these medical professionals came together to perform a successful surgery at the same time of being able to educate me on what exactly they were doing, and the anatomy, and the case of the person.ĪNNA BRADLEY: When a patient's blood pressure dropped and they had to call a rapid response team in and about 15 nurses and doctors had to rush in to the room to solve the problem- but it was interesting how they could stay calm and composed while they were doing their job very well.
And I just remember thinking, wow, I'm holding a human organ in my hand. LEANNE LOCANO: When I got to witness a colectomy surgery, which was a removal of a colon, it was amazing to see it because afterwards, after they extracted the colon, the surgeon actually let me hold it. And the next couple of days, I got to see her slowly recover in the ICU. And what made it so memorable, also, was that I got to watch them perform CPR on her. And it was really impressive to see how quickly everyone in the ER responded and how well they worked together. JOSEPH COLARUSSO: On my second day, I was in the emergency room with respiratory therapy, and an elderly woman was brought in after she went into cardiac arrest. And they were able to remove a cancerous colon without making a huge incision for the patient, so it led to a shorter recovery time. SONIA BURNS: I was in the operating room and I got to see the da Vinci machine, which is kind of like the surgeon controls a robot, almost. And this moment was very eye-opening because I got to see a lot of death situations in the hospital in my previous weeks, and here, I got to see a new life begin. And it was really cool to hear about how she was recovering and how the scrips team helped to make her better.ĪZUL MARMOLEJO RUBIO: Watching a natural delivery- even though there were some complications like the baby had the cord around her neck, and difficulties in trying to get her out, at the end, the mom and the baby were safe and healthy. And I got to hear about her recovery as I progressed in the weeks because I would see her father, and he would tell me about how she was doing. OLIVIA STEPHENS: My most memorable experience would be when I was in the ICU, I met the father of a young girl who was currently a patient, and she was suffering from seizures caused by bacteria in her brain.
