Attention: Surgery Team

Greetings team members. We here at Mercy Hospital are so proud of our 12 consecutive J.D Power Hospital Awards! We continue to lead the medical industry with our cost competitiveness due in part, to our efficient emergency room utilization. As such, we remind our surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nurses, to (time permitting) help us do the "mercy turn" where we can prep the operating room for the next patient as quickly as possible. Show us your mercy turn skills by assisting with cleaning all bloodied gauze, used scalpels, forceps, retractors, sweat rags, biological waste, and any other surgical material.
Additionally, as a privilege of working on the Mercy Team, our surgery team members and their families enjoy complimentary access to the operating rooms (space permitting) for their own surgeries. As such in order to continue to enjoy these benefits beyond Jan 1st, all surgery team members are required to watch a short but entertaining video relating to your operating room priveleges. In the video you'll find clarification on important expectations we have of you, such as helping to clean the operating room after a surgery performed on you or a family member.
We sincerely thank you for all that you do.

All the best,
Chief Surgeon
Robert Barts

ALERT: Everything on here is opinion. Including your comments which are your opinion and is fine with me. So you can have an opinion and I cannot? That seems fair It's nice when we get to hide behind them since on this forum you can. This board would be much more effective if you had to use your name and would probably do a lot more good. My opinion had to do with my experiences while in the military that is all....

Its funny how you get blasted on this site for not conforming to others opinions while everybody has their own. Like is whats going to to do so much for the pilot group.

I have over 7 years of ALPA volunteering and serve on an ALPA committee here at B6 but was assassinated for it on this forum. With all the free time of so many here have....I'm curious. What are you doing for OUR pilot group? Please tell me that this is not it?

Is this the way we treat our fellow union brothers that have a differing of opinion? The ones that are in the trenches and giving of their free time? This is sad and will only do us harm. I WILL continue to be part of the solution with my fellow union brothers.

Not because they feel compelled to moonlight as janitors between flights.

This sounds really inappropriate that a company is asking pilots to clean cabins after flying, and people are doing it....did I read, DURING NEGOTIATIONS? Not that this would ever be acceptable, passengers don't want to see you doing that! I saw a SW Capt cleaning as we offloaded, and thought what is he doing? That just looks bad. Even as a pilot, I want to respect the crew that is flying me. And guys are going this during negotiations? Holy crap.

This! Thank you!

Sometimes it takes an outsider's perspective and insight to realize how ridiculous and inappropriate certain behaviors are.

Shouldn't you be out dumpster diving?

I somtimes help the flight attendants with cleaning because we will leave as a crew and I want to get my ass to the hotel. What is the big deal if you have the time. If it is between flights I generally do not help because I have other things to do even if it means chillin out and mentally preparing myself.

It wouldn't be as big a deal if it wasn't EXPECTED... or if guys didn't demean themselves and their fellows pilots by gloving up and cleaning in front of pax.
