Meh.

I was hoping it would be good, but so far it’s just like every other bad drama on TV. Everything is exaggerated to the point of ridiculousness.

(Though I totally understand New Nurse’s frustration with Foreign Doctor’s accent.  I had to take verbal orders – over the phone – for a patient’s dialysis treatment the other day.  It basically consisted of MD giving order, me repeating what I thought I heard, MD correcting me, me repeating what I thought I heard…. )

I’m still annoyed by the role Jada’s CNO plays in her hospital.  It would have been more realistic if she had been a unit or department manager.  Or, better yet,  a house supervisor.  Someone straddling the line between nurses and upper administration.   Someone not quite so removed from nursing care in the real world. At least I see my nurse manager and house supervisor.

I don’t want to watch an idealized world.  I want to watch someone striving and reaching for ideals in the real world.  That’s something I can relate to.
