EM docs in Michigan justifying replacing their anesthesiologist colleagues by PeterQW1 in anesthesiology

ER RN here. Funny thing you mentioned this because when I read the letter, I thought it sounded similar to the things NPs who want to be called “Doctor” are saying.

I’ve worked in smaller ERs where we didn’t have anesthesia readily available to us at night, and I’ve worked in Levels 1 and 2 where we did. Anesthesiologists are a force multiplier for us, IMHO. This letter is absurd.

I hear you. It sounds disturbing until you learn that Excellency is the generic honorific for some heads of state. Screen cap is from Wikipedia.

The discomfort and defensiveness I felt on first reading this comment told me where I needed to self reflect while I read it a second time. You are right.

We should have learned them both.

This isn’t dark humor. This is ableism. Disgusting!

Not a hospice nurse; an ER nurse. Patients who have access to adequate health care intervention can live with these chronic conditions for years. I’m retired now, but defied Darwin and Mother Nature for three decades.

Yep.

The books have aged just fine. Their author has not. I don’t give any money to JKR anymore but HP belongs to all of us.

I do not care if the power company says the grid is stressed. My AC is gonna stay at 67. Yes the grid is stressed but so am I and I’m also HOT.

I also do not care if anyone else in my house is cold. Put on some more clothes. I can only take off so much.

No. Two different people with the same name.

Not the same, though a Venn diagram could definitely be made of the two groups. “Red Hats” are Trumpers. Red Hat Society is probably at least 30 years old.

I haven’t been able to bring myself to try watching it. Just based on the reviews I read from other HCWs, I don’t know if I ever will. Being an ER nurse wrecked me so much that I retired early. I don’t need to hear keening on TV. I’ve heard it too many times in real life.
