レッスンを作成中...
1
Hi I'm Will Cristobal and I'm an emergency room nurse.
2
A typical day in the ER is not really that typical because it's always it's different everything's different every day I mean granted you'll see similar scenarios but each person is different.
3
So you have the non-critical to the extreme critical.
4
I mean, for example I'll I'll get a guy with with the laceration.
5
I will clean it up and the doctor will stitch it up.
6
Nice. Or someone will come up with abdominal pain.
7
I'll put an IV line in them.
8
Get their blood work. Starts IV fluids and give them pain medication to get them comfortable.
9
Or a guy will come in with complete cardiac arrest the whole team is inside the the resuscitation room and we're pumping were pumping were pushing medications.
10
Uh, we're putting IV lines and shocking the patient's seeing if we'll bring them back to life sometimes it successful sometimes it's not.
11
Nursing school is really cool.
12
Uh... I actually enjoyed it a lot.
13
At at first it's very nerve-racking because you're interacting with patients, you're touching patients.
14
I was one of the very few men in the...
15
in the classrooms, but I mean it was no problem.
16
The perception in nursing is typically, you think a nurse is a female, when there's a 10 percent in the profession are males.
17
I mean there's times when I've actually come in, saw my patient, "Hi doctor how are you?" I'm like, "No I'm your nurse." And then when the female doctor comes in it's kinda like, "This is your doctor. I'm your nurse." So I mean it's just really interesting like, the dynamics with patients sometimes and that I actually have to correct them.
18
And, they always go, "Hey, you never thought about going to medical school?" And I'm like, "No." (I want) I wanted to be a nurse. I enjoy nursing.
19
I enjoy being at the bedside and taking care my patients.
20
My career path after high school, I actually, um...
21
thought about doing physical therapy. I actual want to be in the health field.
22
I didn't want to be a doctor because I knew it was going to take so much time.
23
So I thought about physical therapy. So when I was in college I ended up taking classes geared toward therapy and decided I don't really like this stuff, but I still wanted to stay in health care.
24
After college I just ended up trying to find odd jobs, things to do.
25
I worked worked for health insurance.
26
I worked for HR - just trying to fit my personality.
27
At any rate, I thought it was boring and so, um, one day my uncle, my wife's uncle was like, "Why don't you do nursing?" He was a nurse. And so I said well let me look into it.
28
I volunteered at this hospital, observe the nurses and everything like that and doctors and decided this is actually a cool gig. I'll do this.
29
And so I applied to nursing school and luckily I got in.
30
"So so this is going to bend out like this right. We we have to cock up it a little bit." "There you go." When it's really really busy you may have a critical patient in one room, and then a person that's not so critical turn critical and in the other room and you're trying to balance everything out while at the same time your doctor wants you to you know, discharge a patient in the other room.
31
So, at at any given time I can have four patients but all four patients can want something all at the same time.
32
You have to really, like, people cause you have to deal a lot of personalities.
33
If you enjoy interacting with people, uh, helping people, make people laugh, make people smile.
34
I mean this is this is a great career for you. I mean, if you love math if you love sciences, I mean this is this is a great career to get into, 'cause you use a lot of that stuff. I mean, you have to. You have to think about disease processes and so you have to think about your anatomy and biology and how the cells work and what not.
35
The advice I'd give for high school students, volunteer, go to a local hospital volunteer.
36
It will give you a chance you know, to know whether or not you want to do this, because you'll be in direct contact with nurses. You'll be in direct contact with patients.
37
You'll be in direct contact with doctors and so you get you get an overall chance, uh, to see exactly what this is about.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
