Harrowing and hopeful tales from doctors inside the emergency room
at Staten Island University Hospital--one of the flagship hospitals
of Northwell Health, New York's largest health care provider Open
24 hours a day, 365 days a year--through winter storms, hurricanes,
and global pandemics--emergency rooms are vital to the safety of
any community. Day in and day out, thousands of patients pass
through their doors to address their immediate medical needs. From
life-threatening illnesses and injuries to sore throats and sliced
fingers, ER doctors and nurses are the first line of defense when
something goes wrong. Written as a series of essays and stories by
real ER doctors, The Emergency Diaries gives readers a glimpse into
the hearts and minds of medicine's finest, and the seemingly
insurmountable challenges these everyday heroes face. Doctors
recount firsthand the challenging nature of their profession and
the events that shaped their lives, and share pivotal moments in
their medical careers that have stuck with them to this day.
Whether it's delivering the bad news or making split-second
decisions to save lives, the extremes of this profession can be
overwhelming. ER doctors and nurses are under incredible pressure
to act with grace, precision, and mental fortitude when caring for
their patients. Larger national events--like the opioid epidemic,
natural disasters, and the coronavirus pandemic--have only
exacerbated this stress in recent years. This poignant yet hopeful
book tells their stories, and serves as a testament to their
incredible resilience and sacrifice for the greater good.
