Behind the Scenes

Once the OR is set up, there is still much to do to keep the surgeries running smoothly. One of the big jobs our Lay Team does is scrubbing instruments. It's hot, sweaty work standing for hours in a steamy room – but our Lay Team took this on with smiles on their faces and a wonderful sense of humor. Aren't they cute?
