00:00Finally, the introduction of new medical personnel at the Scarborough General Hospital.

00:04A much welcome relief to staff at the facility.

00:07This from Health Secretary Dr. Faith Brebner, as she spoke on Thursday at the Scarborough General Hospital.

00:13Your arrival means that you are going to bring relief to the current staff.

00:23Yeah, they have been stretched thin.

00:30We hear the concerns about burnout.

00:35We know that they carry a weight that is really, really heavy.

00:41This initiative seeks to officially welcome the medical professionals to the TRHA,

00:46who will strengthen the current staff complement at Tobago's health facilities.

00:51Their addition is in line with TRHA's bid to facilitate continuous staffing improvements

00:56and is expected to ease the current burden on the health system.

01:00This move is also anticipated to enhance patient care

01:03and support the delivery of quality health care to meet Tobago's growing needs.

01:08General Manager on Patient Care Service, Michelle Edwards-Benjamin,

01:12said medical personnel must have moral judgment.

01:17Moral judgment, when you put in your earbuds,

01:22when you come on the night shift and you blast your music all night in your ears

01:26and you cannot hear when the alarm bell rings,

01:30you cannot hear when the machine beeps,

01:32you cannot hear when the patient calls.

01:34Moral judgment, when you choose to sit in front of the nail tech

01:39and give her your hard-earned cash

01:42to put on four-inch, well-decorated acrylic

01:45and then tell me you went to a wedding on the weekend.

01:49Moral judgment.

01:50Moral judgment.
