Jose Cruz and his team have adapted to a new normal in the emergency department at the Misericordia Community Hospital.
“There’s been a lot of changes as we prepare rooms for patients who need to be in isolation,” says Jose, housekeeping attendant. “We need to work harder to sanitize everything, including changing the curtains and washing the walls. Before it was only a regular clean. Now every time there’s a new patient, we need to clean the isolation room.
“It’s tiring, but this is our work. What keeps me going is I love my job.
“I’m just doing my part. My contribution is to help make this area clean and sanitized. I feel part of this team in emergency.”
