It is interesting and sad that things like this go on. It would be interesting to see what other types of things go on. I never thought about the “non-medical” issues inside of the ED.

What blows my mind is that while many ER's are careful to lock up every drug from bicarb to morphine, most of the time the tincture of cocaine is unlocked in the epistaxis kit. Grunt Doc,

If there isn't an equivalent for ED personnel, there should be. Not that I have vacation to burn, but I'd spend a vacation day in an ED just to see how it worked, maybe a day at the courthouse to see how the legal system works. If anything, I'd like to see how things have changed since <em>Emergency!</em> was on the air. Don't tell anyone, but back in the day I wanted to be Randolph Mantooth when I grew up.
