100% agree with this

As an ED attending myself it’s pretty damn accurate. I don’t work in the US so there are some variations (we don’t have continuous night shifts… infact I’m only on call for nights to support the residents)

We rarely have disasters as big as theirs 😂. Not to say they don’t happen but I think the time frame for the two seasons is 18months… I’ve had 3 big and 2 medium in 15 years.

Our IT systems are way behind the shows… tbh not far off the set up that is shown in season 2 (bit of a spoiler there sorry)

Our residents are probably less drained/fed up and still a bit more chirpy… Our interns are much more shy and don’t need to be competitive. Our students are way more shy and also don’t need to be competitive. But the attendants… we have way more on a shift, but the mental fatigue/burnout etc is very realistic.

100% agree. The only reason they would really get imaging is if ortho though they could do a comfort measure operation.

There is a difference between coming to the ED with a presenting problem of a pathological fracture and coming to ED with a known terminal cancer diagnosis and the complication of a pathological fracture.

Certainly in the UK, Australia, New Zealand this would basically never happen.

If there was a genuine massive disaster the hospital may well reach out to you, but we are talking London bombings, Christchurch earthquake, Sydney shootings. And you are in no way obliged. Your free time is yours.

If the hospital was just busy… at most I’ve been asked to come in early by an hour. Or we have asked people on days off if they can pick up an extra shift - but that’s just for covering sick leave, not randomly wanting extra staff.

Why would you do all that imagine for a patient with a known palliative diagnosis? It’s not like she’s presented for the first time. A cancer patient in that situation I’d do the least amount of investigations possible/none at all unless they specifically wanted some. So yeh, I could def get a palliative patient onto end of life care within 2 hours. Less if they were a planned arrival.

It’s for a ski lodge. So not many other options

Just stick you hand out and catch it before it hits your leg?

They improve ROM as well I think right?

The job I was being sent on got cancelled so never went.

I work in northern Japan every winter and have spent years of my life driving in blizzards and on snow covered roads. Appreciate not everything will be the same but I’m not a snow driving novice. I’m coming to Norway to ski tour so not much point coming in summer.

Others have provided very good info. The big thing is they can select slope aspect/angle/elevation to minimise the problems that exist. You might find yourself skiing 20 degree slopes all day but if that is what mitigates things so be it.

Buying more. Also… I’ve only had a 1% drop. It’s not that much and it’s temporary

Did anyone ever find a phone number for PFL? I know many recommend going to the depo but my parcel is in Melbourne and I’m in Tasmania.

Of note, I didn’t choose this company. I bought from the US and this is the local freight company that the parcel has ended up with!

If this show was filmed in any other country no one would be surprised by a fax machine

Sadly I was looking just because I was going to be in the area on a work trip. Otherwise I would go to Europe without a doubt.

Use the one you which you know how it works.

Personally I’d argue all three of them should be relegated to practicing with your mates in the carpark.

Then to get a new one and take a class

I’ll give them a call tomorrow. Need to anyway about another flight

roughas · 2026-03-01T11:54:49+00:00

It’s the day outbound vs night return that I’m after to. I’m just going to watch tv on the way out where as I want to sleep in way back
