So that\u2019s exactly what she did. She stopped and helped.<\/p>\n<p>Flaherty, a registered nurse at UCHealth Memorial Hospital North\u2019s mother\/baby unit, jumped right in, offering to give aid and help those who were already on the scene of the accident.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere were other people there, people who were asking, \u201cCan I do anything? Can I switch out?\u201d Flaherty said. \u201cA lot of people were volunteering to help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was only after EMS arrived that Flaherty learned many of those volunteers helping the accident victim were other UCHealth employees who were off-the-clock but still caring for others. A true testament to UCHealth staff.<\/p>\n<p>The traumatic impact of the accident weighed heavy on Flaherty. She went home, certain that she could not go to work the next morning. While trying to process the events that had unfolded, Flaherty began reaching out to numerous UCHealth friends and colleagues.<\/p>\n<p>She called her charge nurse, Kelly O\u2019Brien. The first thing O\u2019Brien said was, \u201cHey, can I get you the number to First Call?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>First Call is an internal program offered to all UCHealth employees. It\u2019s a resource that\u2019s available 24\/7 for questions related to emotional well-being and work\/life assistance. First Call is a place to receive just-in-time support after difficult moments and to connect with other resources.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after offering First Call, O\u2019Brien provided Flaherty with the phone number of the peer support nurse working that evening.<\/p>\n<p>Flaherty was able to talk with the peer support nurse right away, only hours after the accident. By receiving just-in-time support from multiple resources, Flaherty was able to process the evening\u2019s events and ultimately made the decision to go to work the next morning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve probably told the story like 20 times,\u201d Flaherty said. \u201cBut processing it and getting it through my brain made a huge difference. It helped to talk about it over and over and over again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>By going into work the following morning, Flaherty felt like she made a lot of progress mentally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust being with my friends and people who support me no matter what,\u201d Flaherty said. \u201cI felt like it was the right decision to come to work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Flaherty didn\u2019t realize just how many resources were available until she experienced the need herself. She\u2019s grateful for the support of her UCHealth friends and colleagues who came together at the accident and who continue to support her in processing the aftermath.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\"><div class=\"su-row\">\n<div class=\"su-column su-column-size-2-3 su-column-centered\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;color: #930718\">You Make Extraordinary Possible<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\">Together, we recognize and honor the qualities within ourselves by shining a spotlight on how each and every one of us improve lives in big ways and small.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uchealthpoints.isrewards.com\/Recognition\/Award\/FormFlex.aspx?pr=JAwX5qZPSOA=&#038;m=N\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#A22343;border-color:#821c36;border-radius:56px\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#be657c;border-radius:56px;text-shadow:none\"> Share a story<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taking care of each other, just-in-time Alison Flaherty was driving home from work one night when she noticed people pulled over and someone lying on the ground.
