Priya worked six days, 12-hour night shifts in the understaffed department, as she supported the doctors and nurses.
It was in January when she told her social media that she “decided to throw myself in at the deep end and take on the challenge of a 12-hour night shift, despite having never done one before.”
“I was shocked to see how ill the patients were. Most patients were intubated, ventilated and sedated, needing round the clock monitoring and care.”
Before this, Priya contributed as an event coordinator for RUMS Medical Student Association from September 2018 to June 2019.
