Michel Cymes mobilized as a nurse
"The idea is to go and support the nursing staff, you can't improvise as a resuscitator, he explains. I received the schedule last night late, at noon today it was full, there were 130 guards who had been taken in the night and the day, by people who are not resuscitators and who will come to help the nurses who they know how to do. " The most famous doctor of PAF then expressed his emotion at this surge of generosity. "The roles are reversed because usually it is the doctors who ask the nurses to do things and help them. I find it extraordinary, this dedication and responsibility of the medical profession", he testified.
Michel Cymes is mobilized from Friday March 27: "Tomorrow morning I will be at eight o'clock in the intensive care unit of my hospital and nurses will help me to do things that can be useful to relieve them."
