To say that we are living in an unprecedented time would be the understatement of 2020. Well, maybe a close second to “it’s just the flu”. This pandemic has shined a light on the worlds medical professionals and has brought to the forefront some previously unmentioned specialists. This week we talk with a raspatory therapist and how their fight against COVID has helped dramatically. The responsibilities that these professionals have to those who have been impacted the most by COVID cannot go overlooked. And if you are fortunate enough to meet one of these people, or unfortunate in some COVID cases, please do not call them nurses.
