Oh, Lucas was on Gilded Age! How cool!
I read a comment that Joy isn’t a morning person. In the early episodes, she doesn’t seem to want to be there. But now, she’s killing it.
I was an acute care (hospital) RN Case Manager. Love this show very much and can attest to the shows accuracy. I never miss an episode. However, I would love to see more case management story lines for this show. I am a little bit discouraged regarding the case managers depiction as so far it appears as though that the minimal portrayal of this field only deals with insurance issues. While a case mgr does deal with insurance companies and specific criteria that must be met for an inpatient admission to ensure appropriate coverage and appropriateness of hospital admissions. We also deal with other facets of the hospital system including reviewing quality care, discharges to rehab facilities, nursing homes, need for visiting nurses and also inpatient or home hospice transfers etc. I have in my past experience made some of those actual discharges directly from the ER. The CMs are and should be acknowledged as an integral component of hospital and ED care and quite often deal directly with patients who may need and are set up with appropriate needs for home discharges. We also are on the front lines and quite essential in attempting to make more beds by assessing and collaborating with physicians in determining if the patient is ready to go both medically and that the discharge is safe. I have facilitated many discharges to home directly from the ER. In a nutshell, case managers are an integral part of the healthcare continuum throughout the patient’s hospital stay starting from the ER and beyond. Would love to see more of a dynamic example of CM roles and interactions within the ER.
Zoo vet here, the idea of bringing heavier humans to us for imaging is a myth! We use refurbished human CT’s, we don’t have special CT’s with higher weight limits (there’s really no market that would incentivize companies to make a whole new line of CT’s just for us). We get questions about it frequently but there’s no truth to it
To costumes, one of the best Drs I met when my mom was in the ER had an awesome head scarf. Dude was so cool. Easy to recognize across the room, & he was everywhere. An amazing guy.
That doctor Hunter doesn’t present as smart enough to be a doctor – seems like an annoying college student
Doing BS Biochem in the 90’s, with a lot of premeds & prevets, most of them had photographic memories! I got a lot of Bs in those classes!
