Im the mason who built that gorgeous salt wall. It was my pleasure building that wall for all our hero's working at this hospital.
This needs to be done at more hospitals for sure!! Our healthcare workers deserve this type of space at every hospital!!
As well as, police & fire station's and schools. The high anxiety of hidden daily stress.
I worked in a hospital for 27 years. The last 15 on an emergency department. There was no place or even a person to take care of the mental health aspect of what i did every day.
Thank you for doing this, and hope many medical facilities do sonething similar for the people that work there
I feel ashamed I never thought about our first responders mental health before.... wow
Honestly most people don’t my dad was a firefighter when he came home he always kept quiet the only people that really know what they go through are the first responders
It's terrible the state of first responders/health care members mental health. My mom, a nurse of 25 years has lifelong mental struggles due to her career. A couple of years ago she was punched in the face by a 6'3" 300lb man (as a 4'11" petite woman) and has dealt with flashbacks daily. Covid was definitely another big hit on it (has been the point of having to stop working at this point) these are just 2 of many scenarios that have added to the issues. Its devastating to see her health/quality of like be so poor as she has been dedicating herself to her career! So much respect for those on the front line
But you are thinking about it now. All we can ask of anyone is to be willing to learn and see a new point of view.
@@shywolf4 exactly
Don't feel ashamed at all. Most people don't think about it. I didn't either until COVID came along.
Finally, a place for these awesome people to just shed all the negativity of their jobs. This one moved me to really think about how I can help first responders here in Colombia. Once again George and crew knocked it out of the park. Bless you guys for blessing so many. Hugs from Colombia
We're glad this episode inspired you!
Thank you for caring about our first responders, especially in the city. NYC was hit so hard by COVID I expected to lose some family members behind this. A few family members got COVID. Because of the great care from these wonderful nurses and doctors who care about people they are doing great now. So thank you for keeping our families safe. Thank you George for recognizing our first responders and creating something for them where they can just take a break from life for that moment. George be safe.
Art therapy is great releasing energy is a real thing releasing emotions physically is essential
It feels good to see the TRADITIONAL INDIAN SALUTATION NAMASTHE accepted worldover..as well our mighty HIMALAYAN salt , pink celebrated for its medicinal benefits. May every health worker across the globe be blessed by the Ashwini Gods (celestial doctors)🙏
The rescue was dramatic and wonderful. So happy for that. Please don't undermine it.
Well done George and your team . Hopefully the NHS here In the UK will see this and do the same . 👍👍
God Bless George for helping our front line heros and GOD BLESS OUR HEROS WHO SAVE LIVES YOU GUYS ARE THE REAL DEAL I pry one day this nightmare will go away . THANK YOU ALL FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO
This was amazing! I work for Northwell and am so happy that George and his team were able to help improve this space! That mural that the sisters painted was AMAZING!!! EVERY HOSPITAL SHOULD HAVE ONE!
Thank you to all nurses, doctors, staff, all first responders. They need emotional support.
I was a home health nurse for 20 years I know about the emotional pain and we go through with our patients especially if they pass away. Thank you so much for providing a service. I was wiping away tears all through the show. Then when you showed the nurses and doctors but you had done that was so full of joy. I also have the Himalaya Rock salt my home very calming.
My dad was a firefighter so thank you for what you did I understand what you said when my dad came home he would keep quiet the only people that know what they go through are people like you
Thank you for supporting George to the Rescue!
First responders deal with a lot. They're the ones first on the scene and the last to leave. They are not only treating people, they are also the ones having to break the news to family, friends, etc. when things don't go well. Seeing the things I saw while deployed to Iraq was enough....having to deal with the trauma and everything as a career in the medical field is no different really. You never forget, you have dreams, and nightmares about it and you really can't talk about it with everyone because unless they've been in that career, they would never understand.
As I'm writing this, I'm thinking about the teenage boy we just lost here in the town I live in this morning...gone way too soon. Not only what the family is going through, but think about the first responders... police, rescue, nurses, doctors, all of those involved that had to endure a child losing their life much too young. It seems we lose a lot of kids every year for one reason or another....its not a great feeling. Its not quite as bad when you lose a parent, grandparent, etc. but losing a young member of society it just really hits you harder, you think of all the things that boy or girl could have been all the things they'll never get to do, you'll never see them again, they never even got to finish school, they never got to walk down the isle to get married, etc.
Our first responders need to be taken better care of than they have ever been. They work long hours sometimes without breaks, sometimes without eating, all to make sure that our loved ones in need are taken care of. When you see a first responder, thank them, show them you care, pay for their meal for them (I have done so several times, makes me feel great). Our first responders need our help just as much as we do theirs...make sure they know the job they do isn't going unrecognized.
My mom works in a Deli and I love her, but everyone else needs to respect these people still working during this time. Wear a mask, stay home, and help protect anyone vulnerable from getting this disease!
Aw this whole episode felt so special and then when the woman said it was her best birthday yet, just filled my heart.
Such a great space for caring professionals. Stay strong and stay safe! Thank you!
Thank you for supporting!
George is a true champion adding some joy in people's life who need the most
Ok so about 3 weeks ago I didn’t know what George To The Rescue was ...and now I’ve seen them all
I knew you was gonna do something like this man.. corona has really changed the world and its priorities
I’m not registered as a cna or anything but I’ve been taking care of my grandpa for 9 years
A big THANK YOU to all of our First Responders all over the country!!!
👏🇺🇸💙👏🇺🇸💙👏🇺🇸💙👏🇺🇸💙
In the UK I have a lot of cousins and nephews/nieces who are paramedics, doctors, nurses and other medical staff that were both overworked and exposed to risk during covid. The actual number is 16, and of those 16 there were two who definitely got covid and two others who had symptoms early on but were not tested at that point. All are now tested regularly as things have settled down. Every day was a worry for us all but we have been lucky overall.
It's wonderful to see that.All other places need that.Thank you 🥰🤗
"It's progress not perfection."...LOL!!! The story of my life basically.... :-)
Good on George to the rescue for doing this, but the sheer numbers of people who have caught Covid-19, been treated for it and even died, yet Alone the numbers of medical professionals who are getting burnt out and exhausted from treating the Covid-19 patients alone , yet alone who knows how many medical professionals who may have contracted the disease in the USA, makes me glad that I live in Australia, where thankfully Covid-19 numbers have been low.
that is a great idea for the doctor's and nurses everywhere.
Beautiful. I luv that salt crystal wall.
Wow what an incredible job! Like you said, the ripple affect will be felt for many years to come!
Another good job George👍
They really thought of everything down to wipeable furniture. Loved it!
Thank you... so awesome!! Our first responders are true heroes.
This HAS to be my favorite episode!! I use the Himalaya salts and they're ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!! Thank you to all the frontline workers for EVERYTHING you do...stay safe and blessings to you!! ❤👏❤ GTTR thanks once again for the amazing work y'all do!! And George...HYSTERICAL as always!! ❤👍❤ #TEAMLAVENDER 💜💜💜
Thank you, George! ❤️
This looks AMAZING!!;!! I'm so glad that they have this restful beautiful place to come to when they need to destress relax take a break cry etc!! Unfortunately covid19 cars are expected to INCREASE between now and Christmas:(. They will definitely need this place. Once the Pandemic is over, it's still a great place to destress also. Unfortunately you have patients that due from car accidents, heart attack cancer respiratory problems etc. Thank you GEORGE for doing this!! ( Former medic EMT)
George did an amazing job. God has given him a very special gift. All hospitals/clinics and physical therapy facilities need a room like this. May God bless George, his family and everyone that helps him on these projects.
Go team lavender 👍🏴 we salute you and your colleagues
Thank you to all the staff, first responders and essential workers.
the great thing about covid, and the fact that in 10 years it'll still be the same as today or worse, is we'll get so many fun tiktoks from medical people
I love the wall painting 😍😍😍😍😍
What you did was amazing and well deserved for an amazing group of people that have to cope with so much!! Thank you!!!
It’s so exhausting and it’s something that will be with me for a life time. I’ve had so many patients pass this last year, it makes my heart hurt. I work in Primary Care and see these people often. I know about their families, grandkids, joys and sorrows. I remember the names of everyone of them and will always hold them close to my heart.
That was a wonderful thing you have done for the people of the hospital.
I love Liz's designs. The coffee bar!! Yay! You guys are my heroes.
This is a selfless act..More than all the episodes I liked this one alot❤️
Such a beautiful Tribute for the Staff that takes care of so many. TGFG ~
Thank God for George and all who helped him put this room together. ❤
Wow that’s awesome. Thank you so much for all that you do. Big hug’s for everyone 💕
Wow, that Gray Room was depressing ..... so stark. Good vibes now !! Beautiful. And I’m sure it feels like it’s like a big hug when they need it . Bless you
Absolutely breathtaking.
Another great job done by the rescue team for amazing people!
Thank you for your support!
Ohh man...the salt cave.awesome....it will definitely heal the health staff
Another great job George.
Help the healers, heal the helpers
Thank you! Thank you.💯🌹🌹🌹🌺🌺🌺💐💐💐
If you decide to get a salt lamp and have pets be sure to get a shade or cage. If your pet licks the lamp too much they can get seriously ill with potassium toxicity.
Not all pets lick them. Our cat ignore my roommate’s. But some will not leave them alone.
Interesting
Makes you wonder if an animal is missing something in their diet, maybe minerals and trace nutrients or simply bored.
@@elizabethharttley4073 most animals like the taste of salt. But some have more of a taste for it than others. There is also a condition called pica in which animals obsessively eat non food items. Licking a lamp like this would qualify. One of mine eats any paper left on the floor. It is common for cats to shred or chew on paper, but he actually eats it. We have to be very careful to not let any paper fall on the floor.
NOW that was the best thing I've seen in over a year or maybe longer -- THANKS - I needed this!!
This gives me chills every time I watch it#FOREVERGRATEFUL
George to the rescue,,, #Hero!!!
Philippines , Frontliners need one in every hospital

May your Tribe increase 🙌🏼
Very ❤ felt video or med staff on the front lines.

Thanks, George to the Rescue; it's a great job for health personnel. I loved salt wall but I would have liked to see a waterfall.
Grrreat work again "Team GTTR" the soul giving part of PEACE!!

HOW BEAUTIFUL!!!! 😭
Thank you George and the team! You guys are amazing!
You always do a good job...this one is Awesome !
High Five George and Team!! I LOVE this !
Amazing👍👍👍👍
Amazing! Thank you George To The Rescue!
Great sugar pill I mean salt wall. Most doctors appreciate the power of placebo.
Wow what a beautiful design 😍😍
That was awesome.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Honestly skeptical about the supposed health benefits of the salt wall (for instance, it takes waaay more energy than simple lighting to be able to liberate ions from a salt crystal), but I mean it still adds to the nice calming aesthetic which is the main point of the lounge
Yes, it looks good but...
Don’t be selfish people, use mask, wash your hands, keep the social distancing, don’t need to go hangout if it is not necessary... The only reason why the pandemic even getting worse is because of selfishness.... 🙏🏻 selfishness can kill more people, discipline will save a lot of life....
I totally agree with you.....it is mostly the educated literate ppl who are being selfish....
@@tulikachakraborty4698 sadly true... 😔
@@tulikachakraborty4698 : ??? Wrong generalization.
❤️ watching from Indonesia 🇮🇩
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I sure hope that staff member that had her hands over the front of her mask, washed them before touching anything else. It's an easy thing to forget.
🤗🤗🤗
Nice job, but how does one go about wiping down or sterilizing a salt wall?
17:51: You see all of the health professionals are wearing their masks correctly. There's one in the middle that is an administrator and she wears her mask drooping off of her nose. It's the lady that talks about aneurysm and rehab. That sucks. The professionals, though, all of them, wear it correctly.
I was thinking that, also thinking " stop touching your face!"
I get that these people think that throwing paint on the wall and doing all of these other what they think is stress reducing activities. But I spent 3 years in combat as a Marine and I can assure you that their stress is only relative to their environment.
They have zero idea what stress is like in combat.
I'm not trying to diminish their stress because they have nothing more serious to compare it to. But compared to my experiences in combat their stresses are insignificant.
I'm sure they were traumatized but they have no idea what traumatized really is.
I'm not diminishing what you went through, but staff at this hospital see grim things far too often, pandemic aside
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Did I miss something? I thought you were supposed to breath in the air in the salt cave too. Kind of hard to do w/ a mask on.
Literally to the 1% who’s reading this,God bless you, stay safe and have a wonderful day💜(my dream is to become a famous CZcamsr) thanks .
What are those chairs w wooden arms yet reclining
Yikes all this talk about SALT! it reminds me of the star trek episode: the man trap!. 😲😬
The rock wall is beautiful. I assume that the doctors and nurses take the so called benefits, stated in the episode, of salt with a pinch of it!
Love you guys ps George u need a haircut I’m sorry but I just say
wow i got top comment just like that
Just turn off that horrible fluorescent lighting!!!!!
11:30: we see how seriously to take them
Y'all misspelled influenza
8:22: they show the sisters with no masks at all. They message is do not wear the masks if it is not convenient. It does not matter if people die. Your comfort is all that matters.
While this is beautiful for the health care workers, can we please calm down with the salt therapy stuff?
If it brings you peace in your mind then im all for it, but let's not pretend there is anything remotely scientific about it.
I'm sorry but "if it comes back"? is he talking about covid? Covid is NOT gone, it won't be for atleast 2 years =_= .
I think he meant the really high surge levels in NYC that they had at the start of the pandemic in the US.
8:05: look one of the sisters is letting her mask droop below the nose too. It's like the theme of this video. Screw people who actually want to be safe and to live.
