I work in Pediatric Neurology, and specialize in caring children who have suffered trauma to the head The training is long because you need to understand how to keep someone alive and how the brain effects every system of the body. Our care needs to be constant, even if an injury doesn't seem serious, as secondary bleeding and swelling in the brain is invisible, but very dangerous. After the initial critical period, we start considering what therapies will help the patient regain function. Patients are usually unconscious when I meet them, and what I love about my job is seeing patients gradually become a active person again and restart their lives. They don't always make it, unfortunately, and you can never get used to the death of a child. The most challenging and interesting art is the different types of communication. We have to try to find out what the patient is feeling, which in infants is difficult even without a head injury. We also have close contact the patients' families-we keep them informed what's happening at all times,and prepare them for the time when their get back. That's the best bit, when the child goes home.
