"go live" is the term they've been using at UAB for the start of room service. It officially starts tomorrow @ 7 am. It's been an interesting yet incredibly exhausting week. Originally I was going to go in on Sunday so I could see everything happen. However not only do I have a midterm and a bunch of projects due on Monday...I'm sick!! Yeah can't say I'm surprised. Long hours, high stress, & little sleep alway is the perfect combination for me getting sick. But back to the topic of UAB room service...I wish I could fully explain how big of a deal this is. No hospital this size has ever done this before, and if UAB's pulls it off, it's likely other major hospitals like John Hopkins & Mass General will be next. Local media and press came to do some filming on Thursday. An entire "room service coaching team" flew in on Wednesday. They've been helping UAB get ready for this. One of them said he got a bite from the NY Times so there's a chance they'll do a piece about it. The coaches crack me up. You've got each of your chef stereotypes...the posh french chef, the bad boy tattooed chef, the very very large chef, and the micro manager. :) But seriously, they're all great and such a help. So everyone keep your fingers crossed that I'm able to give you a positive report after Sunday!! Get ready!!
On a side note...I found this on the ADA website. When I applied everything was paper and pretty much a huge pain. This would probably have been quite helpful.
