A nourishing meal is so much more than food. It is comfort in a time of distress, happiness in a time of sorrow, and a respite in the throes of the daily grind.
As a healthcare provider, several friends have reached out to me on how they can do their part to help in combating the greatest pandemic in our lives. The number one priority is staying home so as to protect yourselves and others. While the shelter in place order is and should continue to be your number one priority, some have expressed that they feel powerless and have a desire to do more in this fight. If you are one of those people, help me to brighten the emotionally and physically exhausting days of our frontline anesthesia providers, as they work tirelessly to treat the sickest patients afflicted by the novel Coronavirus.
Why give to anesthesia providers?

While we are all in this together as there is no healthcare worker unaffected by this pandemic, anesthesia providers are amongst those at highest daily risk of contracting COVID-19. The placement of a breathing tube in those afflicted by this virus is a sacrifice faced several times a day by anesthesiologists and nurse anesthetists to give those who can no longer breath on their own a chance to recover their lung function. As these heroes are risking their own health with limited resources to save lives, there is limited time and places open in this era to get a quick bite or essential nourishment during these long crazy days. Join me in my efforts to show our appreciation, and brighten the days of our healthcare heroes.
How can you help? You can start by sponsoring a lunch for one anesthesia provider ($15), the airway team ($50), the entire department ($500), or just give what you can. 100% of the proceeds will go to partnering with local restaurants to provide meals for anesthesia providers in hospitals in New York and Chicago afflicted by this pandemic. Not only will this put a smile on the faces of our heroes, but will help to keep our amazing local restaurants in business.
Please donate, share on social media, and reach out to me with your ideas, or if you want us to partner with a specific hospital or restaurant. I want to thank you in advance for your generosity. Despite the social isolation, we are all in this together, we will get through this together, and will build a better future when we work together for the causes we believe in.
Sincerely,
Zhanna
