我是一名即将毕业的GMercyU护理专业的大四学生. 我现在在阿宾顿-杰斐逊医院做护士助理. 我在一家关闭了几个星期的外科医疗部门工作, 在那段时间里，我在专门的COVID单位工作.
然而，我们仍然有被暴露的风险因为我的单位又开张了. 作为一名即将毕业的护士，工作量肯定会让我付出代价, 但我很惊讶我从GMercyU社区得到的支持. I appreciate all of the people who express love and gratitude to those of us working in all fields- healthcare, grocery/retail, restaurants, first responders, etc.
在我们经历这场大流行之际，我继续为大家祈祷. 我想分享我前几天在社交媒体上读到的一句话:“独自坚强, stronger together.” Thank you to my GMercyU family!

I'm currently at St Mary's in the ER, 作为一名患者访问代表，做患者登记，我整天都在COVID患者身边. I'm also cross training in Maternity. A lot of people think it's OK to go out when they don't need to but it's really hurting everyone around them. 如果一定要外出，请戴上口罩. If you don't then please stay home, 如果年长的亲戚需要帮助，打电话给他们，这样他们就不用出去了.

在这段时间里，当一名教师有幕后的挣扎. Our goal as educators is to provide lessons and engage students in activities that will help them grow as learners and citizens. 我们的世界被颠倒了，教室变成了虚拟的课堂, I, along with my fellow coworkers, are working long, tiring hours to accommodate the students. Between GoogleMeet small group sessions, one-on-one sessions and endless meetings and planning we are providing all of our time to ensure each student is still learning and benefitting during this pandemic.
还有一种需要创造虚拟安全环境的感觉. 我仍然在早上发布我的任务信息，仍然提供签到和支持. 彼此相隔这么远真的很不容易, 但我知道我们继续做的工作将会产生影响. Educators at my school also have the opportunity to work all summer long with a virtual program to help make sure the learning gap doesn’t widen. 这些艰苦的时间绝对值得, 但我在倒计时，直到我能再次见到我的孩子们.

Since graduating from GMercyU, 我一直在阿宾顿杰弗逊医院的中级外科工作. 11月，我有了第一个孩子，小男孩奥利弗. 当我休完产假回来时，我发现他们把我的楼层变成了新冠肺炎楼层.
随着我们的病人比例迅速上升到4:1，我们很害怕，七个班次重复使用N95口罩. 对于我们单位的员工和家属来说，这是一段非常艰难的时期. 我们作为一个工作家庭团结在一起，互相支持.
白天很长很辛苦，现场没有光线. Tears are shed constantly. 我们握着逝去的亲人的手, 拿着平板电脑，这样家人就可以用FaceTime视频聊天了, 在房间里待的时间比我们希望的要长因为病人没有亲人. 如果我能强调什么的话，那就是呆在家里，保持社交距离，洗手!!
