Tesha Loven has been a nurse for 26 years. She is currently the Clinical Director of the Emergency Department at INTEGRIS Health Edmond. She says they’re prepared to handle an influx of COVID-19 patients, even though she hopes they never see one. “We wait on the edge of our seat wondering if ‘today is the day’,” admits Loven.
She understands there’s an element of danger to her job, especially when dealing with a novel virus that we don’t yet know much about. “I feel it’s important to not let fear define me. I must take control of the things I can and accept the things I can’t.”
In order to protect those she loves, Loven has made the conscious decision to stay away from her children, grand-children and parents until this crisis is over. “It’s very difficult, yet it’s a sacrifice many in the medical field are willing to make to keep our families safe.”
