Now is obviously a hard time for many of us.
First and foremost all of our hearts go out to those who are sick and directly impacted by the virus.
For many others on the frontlines, in our medical and emergency services, it’s harder than ever.
Yet fortunately, this is what they are trained to do.
“It’s always chaos around here”
A friend in emergency medicine said to me.
His business is emergency, and he’s been conditioned to deal with it.
“You can’t know whether you can save the patient, or often even what surgery they need.”
But that’s when you fall back on your most basic training, he says.
“You do the most important thing right now that the patient needs, and go from here.”
It’s simple, right?
But especially in our hardest times, this can be very hard to do.
