Episode A Nurse Was Killed Walking to Her Car | The ER Edit Ep. 12

0:00 44:53

This episode is heavy. We talk about the death of Ada Doss, a nurse who was killed walking to her car after work, and the bigger conversation it brings up about nurse safety, hospital security, workplace violence, and the way healthcare workers are expected to keep showing up after terrifying things happen.

We also get into the behind the scenes reality of ER codes, caring for one of your own, DNRs, medical power of attorney, organ donation, and honor walks. It is honest, emotional, and very real about what nurses carry and why protecting healthcare workers has to matter before tragedy happens.
