In our second episode of our Conversations relating to Coronavirus we are delighted to be joined by Joan Pons Laplana a NHS Nurse who recently returned to the frontline in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at a Trust in Sheffield. Joan explains that their day-to-day role was to support safety and quality procedures; but in the face of the Coronavirus Pandemic they felt empowered to return to support their colleagues.
Joan explains that we are not our of the woods yet and that society needs to remain vigilant as we start our recovery process. Joan ends by thanking us for describing the NHS as Heroes but would prefer to be called professionals. Listen now for why they state this.
