ER Nurses Debunk the Biggest Emergency Room Myths | The ER Edit Ep. 13

ER Nurses Debunk the Biggest Emergency Room Myths | The ER Edit Ep. 13

This week we are breaking down the ER myths that make nurses twitch: ambulances do not automatically get you seen first, chest pain does not always mean a bed, normal labs do not always tell the whole story, and the waiting room is absolutely not the DMV.


Caitlin and Karlie walk through triage, EMS wall time, imaging expectations, pain protocols, fevers, head injuries, and the nurse anxiety that comes from seeing what can go wrong.
