003 Realities of a CCU nurse working on the front lines in the Covid-19 Pandemic | Tiffany Toulouse |The Open Forum Podcast
On this episode we talk with Tiffany Toulouse - a CCU nurse with almost a decade of experience currently doing her PhD from Canada who shares with us her experience during the last two years of the pandemic, having been selected for the rapid intubation team - a team specifically selected to respond to COVID-19 patients during the early part of the pandemic in 2020 and covering multiple wards during the pandemic until December 2021. We cover how her experience in the hospital differed to what was seen on the news, potential financial incentives for hospitals to take certain treatment paths, the increase in suicide rates and the impact that had on the ICU as well as the impact of missed treatments due to hospitals working on reduced capacity and much, much more! Join us as we talk very frankly about how it was working the front lines in the pandemic.
As always, a brief chapter list and under that some articles/documents covering some of the background to what Tiffany mentioned throughout the podcast.
