As parts of UK remain snow clad with flights being
cancelled and highways being shut off, there’s no rest for the nurses. Nurses
and health workers battled through the snow to get to their work places and
keep UK’s Health Infrastructure up and running. Many nurses stayed overnight in
their hospitals and surgeries so that they could attend their following shifts
and the patients did not have to suffer any hardships due to the adverse
weather conditions. In an interview with a major media network a Paediatric
Nurse who stayed over at her hospital stated that she had suffered so badly to
reach work that she had to resort to social media to ask people with suitable
vehicles to help her reach her hospital. Some NHS staff even walked hours in
the snow to get to and from their workplaces. NHS were quick to express their
gratitude to Dr Glen Allaway, a Devon based General Practitioner, who had spent
two consecutive nights caught up in his Health Care centre so that he could be
there for his patients.
Several villagers had stepped up to help Community
Health Care professionals to reach villages that were completely cut off due to
the snow.
Community outreach workers could be seen in the wee
hours of the morning trying to help the homeless who would suffer most due to
the brutal end to this winter.
Community Nursing 2018 would like to express its
gratitude to all healthcare professionals who took great perils to serve us
even in such harsh weather conditions.
