Nurse Doris quotes from Chicago Med

Maggie Lockwood

[orienting a new nurse] Seven treatment rooms on the east side, four trauma bays on the west. Bays three and four combine to treat gunshot wounds, a place affectionately known as Baghdad. 4,000 shootings in Chicago. Some days we get... [patient screaming] a dozen. Drug dispensers are in the north and south end of the E.D., extra gurneys, isolation suites in the ambulance bay. Uh... Band-Aid, wound dressings, gauze, and extra weaponry are in the supply closet next to the elevator, which brings us right here to the command center.

Nurse Doris

Deer in the headlights.

Maggie Lockwood

Mm-hm.

Nurse Doris

Nursling?

Maggie Lockwood

Monique Lawson. She's got her Pediatric Advanced Life Support certification, and is doing her E.D. check-off skills training with yours truly.

Nurse Doris

[to Monique] Be careful. She bites.

I hardly slept last night. I just couldn't stop thinking. I mean, so many people coming in, horrible injuries.

April Sexton

And this isn't even a busy day.

I just hope I'm up to it.

Maggie Lockwood

Quick, nurses' credo?

Uh... cure sometimes, treat often, comfort always.

Maggie Lockwood

Uh-uh. Don't kill your patient.

Because that's the doctor's job.

Dr. Natalie Manning

[approaching] I heard that.

Dr. Stanley Stohl

Dr. Rhodes, he's braindead.

Dr. Connor Rhodes

Is he a donor?

Nurse Doris

[checking the patient's license] Yeah.

Dr. Connor Rhodes

Okay... let's get an angio to confirm brain death, then get a cardiac echo. I've got a patient who needs a heart.

Dr. Stanley Stohl

You're wasting your time on this one, Dr. Rhodes. I heard significant mitral regurg on auscultation. There's no way that heart is viable.

Dr. Connor Rhodes

Maybe not now, but that doesn't mean I can't fix it. Let's get him up to Radiology now.
