Doctors and nurses on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic are putting the photos on their protective suits to reassure patients.
In the photo on his uniform, Rodriguez wears a suit and tie and a beaming smile. It’s a seemingly small gesture but it serves to remind his patients that there’s a compassionate human under all that PPE gear.
“One thing health care workers do to make our patients feel at ease is to reassure them with our smiles but now that we have to wear masks, we are unable to do this,” he told HuffPost via email. “A smile goes a long way in comforting a scared patient ― bringing some brightness in these dark times,” he said.
Since the weekend, Rodriguez’s post has gone viral, with over 27,000 “likes” and many grateful comments.“This is something so simple yet so few would think of the comfort it brings patients.”Not long after he posted it, other nurses and doctors started following suit, taping photos of themselves smiling on their hospital garb.
