'My stomach dropped' Ottawa nurses react to COVID ICU deployment


 
OTTAWA --
Odelia Scher is no stranger to the intensive care unit at the Queensway Carleton Hospital.
Walking into the COVID unit at the hospital in Ottawa's west end for the first time, she was taken aback. 
"I hadn’t been to the COVID unit or the COVID ICU at all and when I walked in and saw the environment, it was a lot to take in," Scher said. 
Scher spent one year in the intensive care unit at the Queensway Carleton Hospital before moving to a different specialization.
Last week, she was called back to critical care.  
"My stomach just kind of dropped a little bit," Scher said.
