Lovely post by @dr.juhee

・・・
My time in ICU is 2 weeks from the end. I can most definitely say I have learnt a lot surrounded by a supportive work team and environment! Most importantly, COVID numbers have stabilised and although unfortunately, I’ve seen a lot of loss, I have seen some unexpected but wonderful turnarounds in some patients. 💞

Mainly working in the COVID-only ICUs, it is devastating how severely COVID affects patients - with more patients younger in age and from BAME backgrounds. We are combatting COVID and all its complications of pulmonary embolisms/clots, pneumothoracies, super-added infections and neurological changes to name a few.

We are lucky to have modern ventilation machines, close patient monitoring, respiratory, cardiac and renal support, emergency resuscitation devices, and other life support equipment. But even more so, it is amazing seeing cardiac anaesthetists stepping up and managing ICUs, microbiology consultants and registrars going through all of our patients everyday to make sure we are on top of infections with appropriate anti microbials, physiotherapists and speech and language therapists actively contributing in improving patients’ breathing, managing mobility and supporting tracheostomy weans, cardiothoracic doctors coming to support chest drain insertions, redeployed radiology doctors scanning patients at their bedsides, daily multi-disciplinary meetings discussing COVID treatments for individual cases and consultants from different specialties updating the patients’ families every single day. This is alongside an amazing ICU team filled with skilful ICU and redeployed HCAs, nurses and doctors! 🏥

Regular breaks in our newly made staff room and being fed by lovely places such as @leonrestaurants and @khalsajatha has really made the whole experience that bit easier. Really grateful for all the messages and kind words people have conveyed through these times! ❤️

I just hope everyone keeps taking the necessary precautions - and please don’t get complacent after your first dose of the COVID vaccination - it does offer some protection but you aren’t 100% immune! Stay safe! 🙏🏼

🚩 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗹𝗮𝗴 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 – “𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆❓”
.

Coronavirus chaos has taken over lately, but we must remember all of the other conditions that have not disappeared during this time.
.

I know you may be cautious about seeing your GP during the pandemic, but there are certain symptoms or signs that if you have you should not delay seeking medical attention – these are 𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙛𝙡𝙖𝙜𝙨.
.

Red flags are worrying symptoms or signs that we may find from your history or examining you that could indicate a serious diagnosis.
.

For each presentation we screen for these red flags which indicate a need to investigate further or refer, often to rule out a cancer.

⚠️ We all get aches and pains and more often than not it does not indicate a serious underlying problem such as cancer, so this is NOT to panic you. However it is important these are picked up and acted on to avoid missing or delaying such a diagnosis ⚠️
.

.
Some topics I will cover include:

🚩𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬
🚩𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧
🚩𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬
🚩𝐁𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐥 𝐒𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐬
🚩𝐕𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠

T h e “O l d S c h o o l” C u l t u r e

Why in Surgery and Medicine does the “old school” mentality still exist. I went over to the US to do all of my Surgery and Plastic Surgery training. The mentality amongst the older surgeons was always that they had it worse, so we should never complain about how it was for us in training.

This mentality and culture is so antiquated, and many don’t speak up about it.

Because they did 100 hour trauma on-calls, so did we. Because they operated constantly, all day and night, for days straight, so did we. Because they were bullied by their Seniors, so were we. Because they were destroyed verbally in the OR (theatre), so were we. Because their bosses swore and threw instruments across the room, so did they. Because they had their confidence shot down, we had our shot down too.

I saw so much of this hostility from Seniors of mine during years of training, that it made me wonder about when this is all going to change.

I just hope that the newer generation of Doctors and Surgeons shift this absurd culture that many of us have had to train in. It is unnecessarily toxic and brutal, and it is not a healthy and productive learning environment.

I hope that we can all learn from these experiences, and remember how not to be as teachers and “mentors.”

Most providers that I have worked with don’t want to process their own reality. I too have been guilty of that, but I am finally at the point where I want to share and impart my own experiences onto others.

There are so many factors that impact us at work: Death, Covid, workplace bullying, racism, toxic work environments, work hours, lack of a healthy balance, having to be absent from your family given the job...and the list goes on.

I have experienced all of the above, and let me tell you that it wasn’t easy. I also never wanted to acknowledge it when I was going through these experiences. I powered through, did what everyone said had been done by many before. That isn’t the way I should have approached it, nor should you.
It got the job done for me, as I got through it successfully, but it still doesn’t make it the right way.

Find a healthy balance that works for you. Have an outlet. Pursue some hobbies. Try and obtain the best balance you can for yourself.

I know it can be so hard sometimes, but you can do it.

If you’re struggling mentally, reach out.

You can always DM me as well.🙏🏽

I rarely post opinionated posts, but this is the truth. Firstly, if you think Covid is a hoax, you can feel free to unfollow me.

After seeing a news article of the scenes outside St Thomas’ Hospital in London with people not wearing masks and chanting “Covid is a hoax,” it prompted me to say something.

People forget that I work in an NHS academic hospital as my full time job, and let me tell you that Covid is certainly real.
As NHS providers, we certainly see it.
We know people and patients who have had it, and many who have died from it. Covid doesn’t care about age. The elderly, the middle aged, and children, can all get it and DO get it.

I have tremendous respect for all of my incredible NHS colleagues and for all NHS staff out there, as well as all healthcare workers worldwide. They have all put themselves at risk to help others, and then there are people chanting outside the very hospital that has worked tirelessly to keep so many alive.

To summarise, Covid is real, get the vaccine, wear a mask, and be safe.❤️

I want to thank a few of my amazing colleagues, just to name a few, around the world who spread the word about these issues much better than I do: (@drsharimarchbein @doctordiaries @drreneeparo @pelvicpaindoc @alokpatelmd @halalgirlnewyork @dr.farahmd)🙏🏽
