Nurses are overwhelmed. This Chicago hospital hopes a combat veteran can help them cope with pandemic trauma
CNN
A Chicago hospital is using military techniques to help nurses deal with PTSD, grief and trauma. It's all part of a pilot program started in response to Covid-19 and could be a model for other hospitals across the country.
He was deployed twice, Bracho said, and what he saw in Afghanistan is similar to what he has seen in the Covid-19 unit.
"When the military gets deployed for nine months to a year, we have relief," he said. "There's someone that's gonna relieve us from our duties (so we can) go back home."
