Neonatal unit

20 February 2010

The new incubator was put to use for the first time today. A premature baby who had been born at home had been brought to the hospital as it was failing to drink and was being nursed in the incubator. I helped the staff to understand the instructions which although intensively were in English had been written in Brazil and it took me some time to understand some sections.

This should have been my last working day at the hospital but due to the previous frequent cancellation of meetings I actually went into work each day for the next week as well.
