A young doctor on the pandemic front line

This is a story about a young doctor, Kirsten Thomas who is an intern at a public hospital which is on the frontline of the COVID-19 pandemic in South Africa.

She talks about what motivated her to dedicate her life to medicine.

She gives an insider's perspective on what it's like dealing with the impact of the pandemic.

She also explains why she decompresses doing crazy sports like paragliding. Click here to listen The Story Teller



In our previous post we looked at how a UK charity had created an award winning marketing campaign telling stories about people working in their health care industry. If you focus on story telling and people, you humanise your service.

In my own podcast The Story Teller, this is an example of how something similar can be done in the South African health care industry because every person has a story to tell. Below is the podcast repurposed for YouTube and IGTV (Instagram).
