Volunteering in Hospital

During this summer, I was also able to do volunteer in a hospital in Tainan for a week. I stayed in the emergency area of the hospital, mainly assisting the nurses and doctors on the patients that need the most urgent care and treatment. To be honest, I was not able to really help anything medically, however, I was still able to help out on things such as moving hospital beds and helping the nurses to take medicine from the pharmacy in the hospital, things that do not necessarily require an advanced level of medical knowledge. It was a busy week, patients were coming in every second. Occasionally, the whole emergency area looks like a place that is in chaos but somehow in order. Nurses were rushing everywhere and asking me to do all kinds of things that I could help within my ability as a high school student. It was a fulfilling week and I learned a lot of stuff in this week. I solidly experience the life of a nurse and we really have to appreciate that each of them is standing on line to fight for everything for the patients. It once again reinforces the importance of medical staff to fight against the coronavirus every single day and to honor them with all the respect.
