The National Guard arrive at several Montgomery County Maryland hospitals to assist.

I spent most of the afternoon giving inpatient nurses the security they need in the Electronic Medical Record system to do Coronavirus testing in those tents. They’re being set up in other places, too. We’re expecting to use personnel from lots of places in the hospitals that have ramped down to supplement personnel in the ED, ICU, and other inpatient floors.

That’s pretty amazing . You’re right there on the front lines. How prepared fo you think they will be? I’m sure every bit is a help. Especially getting set up in advance instead of waiting til they are under water.

My friend seemed very happy for the assistance. I’m sure you were warmly greeted as well?

It was a beautiful day today wasn’t it? Even now, there’s a pleasant breeze going. Grateful for spring.

Thank you.

My hospital has its tents up and ready- been testing for a few days, (but not in tents yet). We have several patients.

Our local counties are in semi-lockdown, some with curfews. I’m off this weekend- finally sleep after some very long days. All elective procedures and surgeries canx, no visitors allowed except end-of-life and one for L&D.

Atmosphere at work is determined and sober. No panic, no freaking out. Professional and calm. Oh- plus the usual hospital whacko humor:)

Happy Friday everyone

Life doesn’t stop with isolation.

I hope everyone not only enjoys this video, but will share it around to those who need a little California sunshine. Enjoy. :)

Chino Valley USD Students

School closures throughout the nation have halted highly-anticipated campus events and activities with hundreds of thousands of students practicing social distancing at home. While the annual Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) Choral Festival—originally scheduled for Wednesday, March 18—has been cancelled, our Chino Hills HS Chamber Singers demonstrated resilience by recording their individual a cappella portion of Over the Rainbow in their separate homes, and through technology were able to appear together as a family again. Their harmonious performance was shared online for the CVUSD community with the goal of spreading hope and cheer during this difficult time.
