And it's also quite bad that I actually feel less stressed than before because we've had to cancel our new appointments and groups so it gives us time to catch up on the work that was falling behind because my team was so busy. When I can walk unaided again (two weeks hopefully) I might be redeployed so could be working on wards. Which would be a cool change of pace. A colleague also pointed out that our patient group is high risk, so its likely some of them will die before this is over.
Don’t feel guilty.
Everyone who keeps their job doesn’t need any help from the state and so there’s more for others.
