A BEAUTIFUL PARTNERSHIP

‍Better Care, Together

After a disaster the American Red Cross focuses on meeting people’s immediate needs, including health services. Nursa connects quality clinicians to these same people – in real time. Together we bring compassionate care to the most vulnerable.

Situation

Health service workers support affected communities in a variety of settings, including shelters, emergency aid stations and home visits, by providing health and functional needs care, illness and injury surveillance, and the replacement of lost medications and medical equipment.

I’m grateful for the Red Cross. They took me in and treated me like family.

Jonathan was originally interested in emergency medicine and describes the chaos in the ICU as more “controlled” than an emergency room. As a Red Cross Nurse, he knows he is helping people, doing good things for them, and then seeing the results immediately. What advice does he have for other nurses who may be thinking about joining the Red Cross? He says it is a good way to give back; it is different than a day job as a nurse, and it is refreshing and fun to meet other people.

And you are using a different part of your brain.
