Charusat Hospital

Being out here on the Charusat campus in Changa makes for a different kind of workday than being in the middle of a big city. We are surrounded by students most of the time, and you can see them rushing to their classes or hanging out in big groups near the trees. Charusat Hospital is tucked away in the middle of all that student energy. The walk from the main campus gate is a bit long, especially when the sun is really beating down, but the trees along the path help a little. We get a fair amount of campus accidents, like someone falling off their bicycle or a student coming in with a fever right before their big exams. It is not just students though; people from the surrounding villages come in for help too. The hallways are usually pretty quiet until the lunch break hits, and then the whole campus seems to wake up at once. We have our daily routine of checking the medical supplies and making sure the beds are ready for whoever needs them. Some of our equipment is newer than other pieces, but it all gets the job done. The staff lives in different parts of the surrounding area, so we often share rides or talk about the local bus schedules during our breaks. We do not have much time for sitting around, as there is always another form to fill out or a patient needing a quick check-up before we head home.
