Brown, for advice for a specific reason.While 45-year-old Brown hasn't been a teenager in a long time and isn't new to dating, he's very capable of tapping into his emotions on the fly because, according to Baker, he cries "for a living" for his role on the <a href="https://www.insider.com/this-is-us-characters-actors-different-ages-2022-1">hit NBC family drama.</a>"All he does is cry on the show," Baker joked.Baker said that Brown helped her "go there" with her emotions by suggesting that she listen to a song that makes her cry or remember a time in her life that stirs up difficult feelings.She gave as much credit for her performance in the scene to her acting partners in the moment, Brown and Susan Kelechi Watson, who plays Tess' mom Beth. "I feel like a scene is like ping pong, you pass the ball, and you're responding to people in that scene," she said, calling the conversation about Tess's sexuality "a group effort."<div type="image" title="Eris Baker black and white" height="8024" width="5352" msid="89441495" hostid="261"></div>The actor, who is <a href="https://www.bet.com/article/pvmqmp/naacp-image-awards-2022-nominees-anthony-anderson-host-announcement">nominated for an NAACP award</a> for the role this year, was only about 13 years old when she filmed the scene in 2018. She said she was "freaking out" before filming such an important moment in Tess's life, so she took a unique approach to prepare that she had never used before and hasn't used since. "I had a journal and I wrote from Tess's perspective, what she would be thinking in that moment, because that conversation can go one or two ways," Baker told Insider. "And thank gosh, she had a supportive family, but she still has that fear in her mind: 'If I say these words what will be their response, will things change?'"Investing so many of her own emotions had an unexpected effect on Baker. "When they said cut, I was still in the scene. I was breaking down, but as Eris," she said. Cast and crew members knew the weight of the scene and gave her due praise. "It was super special, Sterling and Susan just looked like two happy parents," Baker recalled of the moment after the cameras stopped rolling. "They were watching me and they were proud."<div type="image" title="Eris Baker and Susan Kelechi Watson hugging." height="667" width="889" msid="89441496" hostid="261"></div>"It was like a family, the crew was clapping, and they were just like, 'Oh my God, you did it,'" she continued.

"You're dancing and you're singing, and it's just such a good energy," Baker said. Of her costars and on-screen sisters Ross and Herman, she said, "I'm really happy to say that we're really close in real life and <a href="https://www.insider.com/this-is-us-chris-geere-miserable-character-pantomime-villain-2021-12">act just like</a> annoying sisters in real life.

"The only difference between them and a civilian EMT is that our medics are trained to do it while somebody's shooting at you," he added. Nearly <a href="https://www.ahcancal.org/News-and-Communications/Fact-Sheets/FactSheets/Workforce-Survey-June2020.pdf">75% of nursing homes</a> reported an overall "worsening situation with their workforce" this year, according to a survey conducted by The American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living."We have 36 residents on my floor. During the day we sometimes only have two aides.

A total of 983 personnel have helped create vaccination sites, logistics facilities, and put together testing kits throughout the state, he said. This isn't the first time the National Guard has been deployed to combat the labor shortage. In September, Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker (R) sent <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/national-guard-drive-school-buses-bus-driver-shortage-massachussetts-2021-9">250 members to drive school buses amid the national driver shortage</a>. According to <a href="https://uscode.house.gov/browse/prelim@title32&amp;edition=prelim">US Code Title 32</a>, federally funded National Guard personnel can "conduct missions at the direction of the state's governor" such as these, Durr told Insider. "We have been working with nursing homes across the state to identify where these medical teams will have the most impact on regional health systems," New York State Department of Health spokesman Jeffrey Hammond told Insider in an emailed statement. "Thus far, ​arrangements have been made to deploy teams to Shaker Place Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in Albany County; Monroe Community Hospital; A Holly Patterson Extended Care Facility in Nassau County; Loretto Health and Rehabilitation Center in Onondaga County; MVHS Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in Oneida; Clinton County Nursing Home; Willow Point Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in Broome; The Pines Healthcare &amp; Rehabilitation Centers in Cattaraugus County; and Terrace View Long Term Care Facility in Erie County," he added.
