2020 has been called a lot of things, and most of them aren’t very nice. But at least one positive situation has emerged from this challenging year – a profound appreciation of our frontline health care workers.
As COVID-19 fills hospitals with critically ill patients, nursing homes battle the virus among its patients and staff, and front line nurses give countless COVID tests and now…vaccines…now, more than ever, Oklahomans owe a debt of gratitude to workers in the health care industry and those who train health care workers.
In this season finale episode:
- We talk about the worldwide nursing shortage and its effect on Oklahoma’s health care system.
- Connie Romans tells us about a generous gift from a CareerTech grad that’s benefitting health care educators and students across the state.
- We hear about some of the challenges of training students for health careers – in the middle of a pandemic.
- We’re reminded that men and women can follow whatever career path they choose…especially in health care!
