Plays of the Week:
Play of the week goes to Dr. Alex Mauro, for her exceptional leadership skills as the senior resident in the clinic juggling appointment adjustments and last-minute changes.
Play of the week also goes to Dr. Andrew Warren, who has excelled under pressure and the acute NICU census bump, all with a positive attitude!
Play of the week goes the NICU fellows during their HALOsim. Pericardial tamponades are NO MATCH for them! #pericardiocentesis #practicemakesperfect #HALOsim”
Play of the week also goes to Dr. David Myles, who went above and beyond for a patient's family by escorting them and monitoring their pulse ox while waiting for X-ray.
