The Zika virus has been getting a lot of coverage in the media. Primarily transmitted by infected mosquitoes, those who acquire the disease will experience symptoms such as fever, rash, and joint pain. Though the disease symptoms are relatively mild, concerns exist for pregnant women who contract the virus because it can lead to serious birth defects. 

After you’ve been working in the hospital for a while, it is clear to see that everyone has a defined role. Whether a nurse, a respiratory therapist, a laboratory technician or a facilities manager, all team members know their job duties, their scheduled work hours, and the hospital units that they cover.
