The hospital’s janitorial staff really touched me. Especially the man, his final remarks made me sob. They are extraordinary people.
I just think it’s so sweet that Curtis says a prayer for the person while he cleans up the room. 😞❤️
Yeap
Thank god for these men and women who want to practice trauma medicine! My neighbor was a trauma director at a level one trauma center here in California. He is retired in his 70s and misses being a trauma surgeon. He loved helping people and fixing them when they were at their most sick and injured. He got a huge high from saving someone’s life and got numb to death as it was a part of his job that really sucked!
Being a Trauma Surgeon/Nurse/EMT/Etc. is an unfair job in how staff are expected to save patients who have too many things wrong with them to have any sort of chance of survival, but still do their jobs to the best of their ability. It has to take a special breed of person, because I sure do not possess that sort of toughness!
My papa is still a trauma doc at 69! 😂 he’s more deaf than a old donkey but he sure knows what to do and how to make you feel better, he’s got some crazy stories on his belt.
As a retired EMT/FF this really had the tears rolling down my face for the patients.
In Cleveland you've got guns, in Dayton you've got drugs. Welcome to Ohio.
Good thing I never made it out of the airport in either Cleveland or Cincinnati.
I don’t get it, why would criminals move to Ohio. It’s cold, like bruh, go somewhere else.
A trauma can be a real wreck after a trauma victem has been treated. Thanks for the janitor. If it was not for him, it would be difficult for the medical staff to perform their duties. Thank you very much, God bless you.
Curtis sounds like he has a true heart of gold. I would be happy to be his neighbor any day! I may volunteer at a hospital and working outpatient surgery and I love it so much and appreciate every role that every associate has. Great story and best wishes to you all.
Thank god for ppl like that..
Meanwhile eating cornchips and shin ramen...
This is depressing.
my dad was probably in a real trauma room before
i'd expect this in LA or something but Cleveland geez
Meredith Miller I live in Cleveland 75% of its perfectly safe but there's a 10 square mile area just east that's really bad. I've been robbed 2 times before there
In Chicago, it is probably worse than LA
EVS personnelle are healthcare workers too, they participate in the maintenance in hospitals and are always the best!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Men as a trauma OR cleaner.. I've seen some crazy stuff going on 1 Year now ,
Exciting atmosphere
Best EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT in the City of Cleveland, UH Main Campus.
Brigitte Blackburn Best Emergency is probably Metro since they specialize in trauma but to go to metro you have to be in bad shape
I hope there's laws in Ohio that force reckless drivers and perpetrators of gun violence to perform community service in trauma centers, because if the custodial staff have to endure such trauma, then people who were the problem in civilized society need to pay their debt by working as the solution.
This!! Classes on sanitation and having someone supervising making sure everything is sanitary. This would definitely make some people come to their senses
@@somethingiconicig3967 I'd be traumatized enough seeing heavily injured, bloodied bodies and having to take the remains of the dead to the hospital's morgue.
@@GOFLuvr it’s just not fair some people go around killing, getting off with no punishment, and then these poor older folk having to spend years watching people suffer and die and then clean up the mess. I hope someone who can make some change and have a program like this would really help make a difference within gun and general violence
@@somethingiconicig3967 Agreed. The state of Florida has a law that makes reckless drivers perform 120 hours of community service in trauma centers or hospitals that regularly receive accident victims.
Sadly the law doesn't seem to improve anyone's driving, but hopefully enough offenders are getting a good first hand look at the consequences of their actions.
Patients who Get D/ C from rehab CTR . Should do volunteer in ER RM .
"This is America"
American cities run by democrats causes this kind of violence.
The OR staff needs graduate also
Damn
It triggers frustration with me because these thugs, criminals, white or black doesn't matter takes help from GOOD people who aren't murders, thugs, drug dealers etc.. It's bullshit!!!
They save everyone, no matter what
Heroes work at hospitals!
Wait what.. armed security guards in a hospital?
A lot of hospitals have them. Mine does.
Luckily. I would rather have them, than not.
Yeah, there’s been hospital shootings
my last comment is facts and I'm a black woman but was and is determined to be the odds. We as humans are not perfect but certain things I work hard to avoid.
Is Trauma treatment free? How are the funds managed?
I thought Metro was the only Level 1... Interesting
Metro is the only level 1 trauma for adults with burn specialists in the state of Ohio and is a level 2 trauma for peds
I would think that the janitors would be better equipped with protecting themselves by using a face shield, protective gloves. Why doesn’t he have a mop instead of using a napkin to wipe up the floor/s. Am I simply missing something ????
I work in EVS at my local hospital. Some stuff isn't allowed to be used in most ORs, but ever hospital has different policies. We aren't allowed to use brooms, dust pans nor dust mops in OR rooms. Also, using a paper towel to get the blood/body fluid up first keeps it from spreading all over the floor. We would then go behind that with a flat mop with an industrial grade disinfectant. We also do terminal cleans as well as ARTZ OR when called to.
And as far as face shields and Ppe, we don't need them. We come in after a surgery is finished and everything is settled. Nothing should be splashed around in order to get in our eyes or mouth. The only time I wear PPE is when I'm terminal cleaning and OR room or using a NIMBUS machine when we clean regular patient rooms.
Why would he use a mop when that takes so long to dry and there could be another trauma in the same room?
How come nurses don’t tie their hair and keep them lose while working ??
Humanity at its worst
This is outrage journalism. This is actually a beautiful testament to medical science. Most trauma cases are not violent.
Humanity is good but a lot people are violent
Smh
*beat
Remember it's not the gun,it's the type of people behind it.

Imagine that lol
well...america...
Poor, Democrat controlled cities and states. Gangs, drugs, culture and liberal policies kill.
ED LPN in level 3 aspiring to go to a level 1 after RN
Don't you think gun bann should be much appreciated???
Nope it’s a constitutional right in the United States
@@JaneDoe-xn3ct Constitutional right that has been responsible for massive school shootings and more to list. Its the right to easy access of a gun so you can kill people, SICK
@@nunupon1359 there’s a lot of sick mother fuckers out there. I’d rather have my firearms than not. My family and I won’t be victims.
@@JaneDoe-xn3ct These sick “mother fuckers” are the same ones getting guns and luring people to kill them, good luck with the shootout
@@nunupon1359 I’m a normal person! I’m never doing something that crazy unless my life is in danger and I have no other alternative! Not every gun owner is crazy.
Have you ever had a fat doctor try to tell you to make sure you’re physically active?
I had a Doctor at an injury clinic who was not only fat but also smoked cigarettes, but I appreciated his work for helping my back fully heal up.
I made it 1000 haha
Obviously they're gonna be mostly African American men.
Angel Zamora What group of people have been in the media lately for mass shootings? Oh.
That Guy There goes the 'racist' word again lol. It's a fact that black men like to shoot each other.
nut How many shootings have been in black areas like the hood in Chicago? Oh wait you dont know since its not reported.
Yea just like caucasian school shooters. Do not try it. Stop throwing race into every situation
nut
And it's even worst now...
It's a hood thing
I’m keeping my guns
It was a good segment till they brought race into it.
Do you need a safe space?
Lol ain't the truth a bitch?
Then it made you uncomfortable.
@@shartattack12 i’m saying they don’t need to put race into stuff like this, it has no value and there’s just zero point of saying ig
Where was the race part, did I miss it ?
