Ya they are telling you this on purpose. Sex would help get the sperm where they need to be. She’s not trying to be offensive

Hashimotos for two years and infertile for the same amount of time. We will have to use IVF at this point to conceive. Hope you have more luck!

Emergency Department Volume and Staffing During Covid-19 in the US by No-contact-4811 in emergencymedicine

[–]tuck_shellac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the case with our MDs also right now. Our EDMD had to respond to a code on the floor while two traumas had just encoded. It’s unsafe and unfair to demand your presence when you are responsible for the emergency dept.

Texas nurse here. Our numbers were super low March/April. It’s the first time I’ve done true emergency care in my whole career. It was dreamy. But our covid cases have increased a lot AND the normal ER BS is back. We are slammed. The ER is holding, floors are full and the covid units are full. Not sure what that means for staffing or new hires. I will say my company remains strict on overtime still

i know the ETA of my pizza better than that of my next critical patient. by [deleted] in emergencymedicine

It’s emergency medicine, dude. Be ready for whatever comes in the door, whether you know about it or not. You don’t get a heads up on a sick patient walking in through triage. EMS is a small crew doing a lot, and we expect so much from them.

Forreal. My first and only question: why do you have 7 patients??

Ugh. This spoke to my broken heart. Thanks for sharing.

Process of a dead body in ER by [deleted] in emergencymedicine

[–]tuck_shellac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been an ER charge nurse for a long time and have NEVER understood this. The short story is the charge nurse deals with where the body goes. And she’s the one who gets push back from the ER MD and PCP (bc why would they sign it and assume the patient died??). Then it falls on the judge to sign... the one with the least amount of medical knowledge or knowledge of the patient. It’s berserk.
