"I’m not sure if this is because I work in a smaller rural hospital, but it was
something I was glad to be part of; I’m not sure we could have gotten away with
this in a larger hospital.
I’m an administrative assistant at a hospital. I have no formal medical
training outside of CPR and recovery positions, but I assist the nurses and
doctors enough to have seen my fair share of medical emergencies.
Mr. Smith (name changed, obviously) is one of our patients who has recently
taken a turn for the worse. He has terminal cancer and isn’t expected to last
the night. He is in his late nineties and his family has been preparing for
this day, so they’re all in the area and coming by to spend some precious
moments with him.
I’m standing at the reception doing some of my work when I see a woman who I
recognize to be one of Mr. Smith’s relatives standing at the entrance. She
seems hesitant to come in, so I approach and ask if everything is okay."
