Too many people died in our tiny ER this week. ICU patients admitted to med/surg because it's the best we can do. Patients we've tried to keep out of ICU for two weeks dying anyway. This is like nothing I've ever seen.

Oh no

Edit: for those of you that don’t doomscroll the nursing R*ddit “coding” is where people die/have to be resuscitated

    Yeah, I read a very convincing article about how we have 4300 icu beds per 100000 versus 6100 in Canada, and that the Us free market system was far superior with dealing with surges!!! :so-true:
