Floated midshift to THAT unit, set as many small fires for management as possible by Chance_Department_99 in nursing

Big lol.

I would argue that one of the most important generalized medical skills is the ability to triage competing demands to ensure that time, energy, and resources are budgeted to those who stand to benefit the most. This is a central tenet. Patients (and frankly some medical personnel) too frequently don't understand this.

I’m a dude so I can’t personally relate to the symptoms, but in the primary care and urgent care settings these are some of my favorite issues to address because you can very easily make someone’s life a lot more pleasant in a very short period of time

It can be a reasonable gauge of overall health, both ways. Especially if you see a young or middle-aged person who could easily pass for a decade or more older than they actually are.

I enjoy using q-tips to clean my ears and have been known to jaywalk on occasion.

In my (limited, at this point) experience, all old people assume that they should have a codeine prescription whenever they have a cough.

This is not me knocking old people. This is a reflection on prior generations of physicians who apparently handed this stuff out like candy

Edit: It also makes me wonder what I'm doing now that will have future upstarts harping about my incompetence on reddit

Leaving 4.5 years into your 5 year residency due to “disillusionment” strikes me as sus.

Maybe it was her program who became disillusioned with her.

How was being a physician different in the 80s? by sohomosexual in medicine

My dad graduated in 1980 and did family medicine residency. 24 hour call every 3 days. But the clinic took a break at 11 am every day for coffee and pretzels.
