'At the moment we don’t have time to process the horrors we have seen, but I think so many doctors and nurses are going to suffer from post-traumatic stress after the virus is beaten.'
As a nurse all I want to do is fix things, and with this virus there is nothing I can do. For now, my role is the same, but I’m helping on other wards filled with ‘query Covid’ patients and those who have tested positive.and clean them ‘as best you can’, and I’m scared of contracting the virus, having no symptoms and passing it on to one of my chemo patients with a low immune system.
30 per cent of my team have been told they can’t work for three months and that’s before colleagues with symptoms take two weeks off to self-isolate. Once I’m off nights I’ll be picking up more day shifts to help keep the system going.
