One Night in the ER

Follow Dr. Jim McCray through a single twelve-hour night shift working in the emergency room of a small Midwestern hospital. The fast-paced writing chronicles Dr. McCray’s experience with wit and candor as he manages a series of typical but poignant patient interactions. The book dives deeply into the practice of modern emergency medicine with detailed descriptions of medical care and procedures. It is based on the author’s real-life experiences as a young resident physician.

Medical Terminology Storytime

I am studying Medical Terminology as I begin my journey to a nursing degree. I thought I should listen to some books with lots of medical terminology so I could hear things in context in addition to learning terms. I hope to be an ER nurse so the title stood out to me. I was more than I could have hoped for. I could pause and translate words along the way. It was just the right about of technical knowledge and entertaining story.

I am sure I would have liked it more with a real narrator, but I sped it up to 1.2 to make it better.

great heart of a young doctor

I loved the book, but highly dislike mechanical robot voice of a computer reading this book. Give us live people to read people’s stories!

Real Life!

As an ER nurse, pretty much have experienced similar situations and then some! Much respect for this provider. Forgot it was AI after first chapter

content

truthfulness and accuracy of the doctor's job. Learning the components of doctor's job skills is interesting.

ONITER

It was a decent book overall. However, I found the author/doctor to be insensitive at parts and quite arrogant.
