delivery of the new chamber in April of 2008
Working for 24 hours and then being off for 48 has some benefits. Some include having to drive to work only once every three days, get things done such as yard work or doctor visits during the week and most importantly, spending time with my kids. It does have some disadvantages as well. For instance, just being away from family as well for 24 and even sometimes 48 hours. But the good out weighs the bad. For me, I get a couple days a week with the little ones, but also work part time as a Hyperbaric Technician at St. Luke's Medical Center.
I've been with Aurora since 2000, and have had a few different roles. And right now, I don't plan on changing that anytime soon. Working as a Hyperbaric Tech a few days here and there is great for my family and me. It has given me the opportunity to purchase my new toy, Project Fallen Axe, back in September of 2010. Below are just some photos of our new department.
