Volunteer

August 2018 • Issaquah, WA

What I liked

I have been helping out in the general surgery unit at Swedish Issaquah Campus. I work mainly at the front desk, answering call lights, paging CNAs and nurses, taking calls from other units, doing paperwork, delivering medicine to nurses, and helping with non-medical task such as bringing ice packs to patients.

What I wish was different

Haven't been working there long enough to say.

Advice

Would recommend to people interested in healthcare! It's a cool way to give back to the community and immerse yourself into the healthcare setting, and see up close the roles of different healthcare providers.

Research Consultant

June 2018 • Seattle, WA

What I liked

I was given a lot of autonomy in planning my research and shadowing. I spent about 12 hours/day, 5 days/week for 3 weeks in the operating room watching various procedures in both cardiac and vascular surgery. On the research side of things, I had the opportunity to conduct semi-independent work, writing case reports for the cardiac surgeon I had been shadowing. I produced three case studies. I also singlehandedly abstracted the large majority of data for an ongoing study regarding pulmonary embolism treatment.
