- Hi, my name is Captain Joe Kochan.

00:03.880 --> 00:08.870
I am with Navy Medicine Support Team.

00:08.870 --> 00:11.760
My hometown is Okemos, Michigan.

00:11.760 --> 00:16.300
I am the Senior Medical
Executive for this team at MST

00:17.310 --> 00:20.270
and I also am a critical care physician

00:20.270 --> 00:22.250
that's working at Elmhurst Hospital,

00:22.250 --> 00:25.110
helping out in their intensive care unit.

00:25.110 --> 00:26.960
My job was important because I was here

00:26.960 --> 00:31.250
to help the civilian hospital
Elmhurst and their providers

00:31.250 --> 00:32.920
and have them get some rest

00:33.760 --> 00:37.820
from a much-needed mission
that they had been working on

00:37.820 --> 00:40.317
in providing healthcare
to the COVID patients

00:40.317 --> 00:42.640
within New York city.

00:42.640 --> 00:45.140
I just want to give a shout
out to my wife, Allison,

00:45.140 --> 00:48.360
to my son and his wife,
Daniel and Rebecca,

00:48.360 --> 00:52.450
and to my daughter, Emily, and
to all our family and friends

00:52.450 --> 00:56.170
and my mom, Sandra, in
Sterling Heights, Michigan.

00:56.170 --> 00:57.003
Thanks!
