ON 7/22/2026, WE WERE HAVING AN EXTREMELY BUSY TIME IN RESPIRATORY, THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE HOSPITAL. MULTIPLE TRIPS WITH VENTED PATIENTS, INTUBATIONS, RAPIDS AND CODES. THE CHRSYTAL SPRINGS TOWER WAS HECTIC. IN 9 CST ICU, WE HAD AN UNSTABLE VENTED POST CODE TRANSFERED TO US AND ANOTHER PATIENT WHO URGENTLY NEEDED TO GO TO THE CATH LAB; PLUS ANOTHER THAT WAS NEEDING TO BE INTUBATED, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. HELP WAS IN SHORT SUPPLY, BUT RT SHEYLA HERNANDEZ STEPPED UP TO COVER THE UNIT FOR THE INTUBATION WHILE WE WERE IN THE CATH LAB. ONCE WE WERE BACK, SHE STAYED TO FINISH UP WITH THE INTUBATION SO MY ORIENTEE AND I COULD TAKE A WELL NEEDED FOOD AND POTTY BREAK. FOLKS, TEAM WORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK!!! SHEYLA'S COMMITMENT TO THE WELL BEING OF HER PATIENTS AND FELLOW THERAPISTS IS COMMENDABLE. THANK YOU SHEYLA!!!   JENNIFER BOZMAN, RRT
