Day in the Life Episode 2: Bridget Donaldson

Hidden Heroes: Day in the Life as told by our staff in Croydon
After a successful launch of Day in the Life on 29 January, we go behind-the-scenes once again to show you how our #TeamCroydon staff are caring for our patients.
Giving a unique insight into what makes #TeamCroydon, we speak to our staff on the frontline and in essential support roles, to ask in their own words:
· What do they enjoy most about their role?
· How COVID-19 has impacted them?
· What makes them proud to work for Croydon Health Services?
This week we visit Reedham Ward at Croydon University Hospital, where Healthcare Assistant Bridget Donaldson, speaks to us about her role and what it entails.
Bridget made the change from cabin crew to the NHS to help our teams on the frontline care for patients at the start of the pandemic. She delves into how her experiences have changed her and how COVID-19 has affected her personally.

Over the coming weeks, Day in the Life, will highlight the efforts of our doctors, surgeons, nurses and midwives, but also our teams behind the scenes, such as our cleaners, porters, administrators and volunteers.
