[B.M.T. Nurse] What I like most about my job in the BMT program, is that I am an instrument to help those people that need to recover
their health. Being able to serve them and make a difference in their life.

[B.M.T. Program Director] On preparation for the allogenic transplants that we're doing. We are expanding our inpatient program to accommodate these type of transplants. The growth that we're seeing and potentially see for our program.

[Patient Care Manager] We're going to be headed into the future, into even expanding further, with another bed tower, which will have 39 beds. With the opening of Miami Cancer Institute, that gave us a whole new community to work with in the Miami area. We started
with all types of oncology patients, as far as everything being taken care of in
one setting.

[B.M.T. Nurse] What makes me excited about doing allogeneic transplant, is that now, I'm not only going to be able to provide services to patients that need an autologous transplant. I'm gonna be able to learn by experience and with knowledge of other experts, how to take care of patients that are going to
receive allogeneic transplants.

[B.M.T. Program Director] We are going to be the only transplant program here in South Florida providing the type of transplants where we do the
processing of the cells, thereby preventing graft-versus-host disease for
these patients. One of the innovative therapies out there we're bringing in is CAR T-cell, for the patients with key malignancies. And this is something that is also going to be provided in a program as we grow.

[B.M.T. Nurse] I feel comfortable reaching out to physicians, to physician assistants and to practitioners, to discuss about a patient and to give my suggestions in my observation so that we can bring the best benefit to the patient.

[B.M.T. Program Director] It's an exciting time for nurses
BMT nurses to join our program because Baptist is all for nurses. It's an opportunity to join something that's bigger than themselves.

[B.M.T. Nurse] One of the things that I like about working at Baptist is the camaraderie. I feel that I'm in the family, I feel loved. I feel that everything we do is with love and with a keen interest of helping others to recover that health that they don't have anymore. And I just I feel at home.
