Part 1
You have just come in on your swing shift for Memorial's Emergency Room. As an ER Resident, you never know what is going to walk through the doors. After your initial rounds of the current patients, you glance at a clock. 8:30 pm on a summer, Friday night and already 15,000 steps, still 80 *F. Time to buckle in, these are always the busiest nights.
The head nurse tells you that paramedics have just called in multiple patients from different traumas and calls. It is all hands on deck and you rush to the intake rooms. You and your team of 3 other residents need to divide and concur.
The intake nurses have taken the vitals of the 7 new patients. Since you have 5 other patients in your bays already, you will needs to record the new patient's key information, and possible health outcomes for each as the nurse debriefs you.
(For each patient, write down what you notice, wonder, and need to know on a piece of paper)
