Maura Tierney talks about leaving ER

        “Thank you, but I’m not looking to you for defense of my actions. In fact, I feel that M and M has become a forum to place blame, cover up mistakes, or be grateful that there’s not a lawsuit. I would argue that, actually, we should embrace our mistakes and learn from them to improve the system. I erred not because I was untrained or incompetent but because I was exhausted, having been up for 36 hours. If we really want to cut down on our errors why don’t we, for example, allow on-call house officers to leave by 12 noon on the post-call day? Why don’t we establish a night float system? Air traffic controllers work with airplanes four to six hours a day no more than two hours without a break. Now, why? Because human life is at stake. Yet we allow surgical interns to work 36 hours without sleep. Why? Because we’ve all had to do it? Because the surgeons before us have had to do it? Tradition may be wonderfully nostalgic but it is clearly not in the best interests of our patients. If you disagree with me, why don’t you ask yourself next time you fly: Do you really want that man in the control room to be on his 36th hour?”   -- Elizabeth Corday

Mark died this morning at 6:04AM. The sun was rising, his favourite time of day. I sent this on so that you might know he was thinking of you all and that he appreciated knowing you would remember him well. 

ER - Dr. John Carter

best of tumblr text posts does ER

You know, there’s two kinds of doctors. There’s the kind that get rid of their feelings, and the kind that hold on to them. If you hold on to your feelings you’re going to get sick every once in a while. It’s part of it. You know, people come in here, and they’re sick, and they’re bleeding, sometimes they’re dying. And they need our help. And helping them is more important than how we feel.

“We’re going home.” 

ER Appreciation Week 2015 | Day 4: favorite quote: “Generosity.”

What I feared has come upon me. What I dreaded has happened to me. I have no peace, no quietness. I have no rest, but only turmoil.
