I will never understand the sense of urgency that a 1 day hx of runny nose can cause that would make someone decide to show up in the ED at 4am… Like why?

I get it... No one wants to be called at midnight about a patient in the ED. However... 1. This is part of your job as well as mine. 2. If you're going to be tough on the phone, at least be tough in person when you show in the ED.

Intern Tip: Yes I know, your off service, tired, and w/e specialty your on isn’t your jam.. BUT, unpopular or popular opinion, you can learn something on EVERY service your on. This is YOUR training. You get exactly whatever it is you put in. Why not put in your best?

Warning: Another Hot Take I get that “social EM” is a sexy buzz word that people (particularly med stud applicants) thrown around as one of their interests within EM. However, I don’t think that theres anything unique about social EM that is not intrinsic to EM itself. 1/
