Class of 2016, RN<\/strong><br \/>\nTexas Infectious Disease Response Unit<br \/>\n<br \/>\nAs a member of the state response unit, Johnson worked on a team comprised of nurses, paramedics and physicians from across Texas. For two years, the team trained in high-level personal protective equipment (PPE) to be prepared to deliver care to patients suffering from high-consequence infectious diseases.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nIn February, they applied those skills when activated for deployment to San Antonio.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nThe unit helped citizens who were on a cruise ship where a COVID-19 outbreak had occurred. The tourists were quarantined on an Air Force base; anyone who became symptomatic or received a positive test result was sent to the team\u2019s facility, which was the second location in the United States caring for COVID-19 patients on this scale.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nJohnson and her fellow team members worked together to establish guidelines for providing medical care but also the logistics of laundry, housekeeping and transportation. They adapted to daily new realities, which included supply availability, patient census, PPE protocols and providing culturally sensitive care.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nJohnson, who was quarantined for weeks before arriving at the facility for more isolation, strove to treat the isolated patients as humans first. Small actions like providing them fresh clothes, helping them to receive communion, and, in one man\u2019s case, a few minutes of fresh air in an enclosed patio became key points of care.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/magazines.uthscsa.edu\/schools\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2020\/07\/Alumni_Covid_GarciaM.jpg\" alt=\"Martin Garcia Jr., B.S.N.
