ICU – A day in the life of the intensive care unit
On March 29, 2010, CTV Montreal ran a special report focusing on a day in the life of the ICU. The story followed the ICU team at the Montreal General Hospital and provides a rare glimpse into a busy and sensitive area of the hospital that few people ever experience. The video features interviews with a number of staff, namely ICU nurses Giselle Melanson, Jenny Mizina, Nurse manager Colleen Stone, Drs. Ash Gursahaney, and Debbie Schwarcz, and Beverly Coshof from Social Service.
