Infos

This book details the challenges of working in a modern Emergency Room in a suburban setting. The characters are not real but the stories were part of the author's twenty-two year career working in Emergency Medicine. The stories are woven around a fictionalized romance in order to prevent the book from being a continuous series of 'war stories.'

"e;Dr.Grasso,"e; came the shout. I hate shouting across the room. "e;Dr.Grasso,"e; this time louder. Then finally a blood curdling shout "e;I need you in eight now!!"e; It wasn't like I was far away mind you. Hell, the whole ER was little more than the size of the produce section at Quick Check, but when Kathy A yelled it was going to be bad. Sure enough as I came around the curtain, there was Kathy and an ER tech cutting away the last of a middle aged guy's shirt, tie and underwear in one motion. I didn't need the cardiac monitor which hadn't been connected, to know he was in trouble. He had "e;the look."e; A kind of blue black hue that was the preferred color of souls on their way to the pearly gates. "e;History Kathy?"e; I said as I grabbed electrodes to attach to his chest. "e;No history,"e; she said, "e;I didn't get that far. He got to the front desk, said the magic words 'chest pain' and collapsed on the stretcher when security brought him in."e; Thus begins a look inside the workings of a suburban Emergency Room. From high drama life and death to mundane minor health complaints,the book will give the reader a real look at the Emergency Medicine profession.The stories are woven around a fictionalized romance in order to prevent the book from being a continuous series of "e;war stories."e;
