Behind The Scenes: A Day in the Life of an Emergency Medicine Resident 

_But where is his bicycle helmet?_

2:47 The greatest line: "4-minute commute." Half the west coast has a 90 minute commute.

I’ve always had a strong admiration for folks that actually make a plate and eat at the table for a meal… even if they’re alone. I think it’s about consistency. It shows discipline and structure. I dunno. Always stuck out to me. Good man, should be very proud of himself.

Very Informative. Provided us with a real day in the life of an ER Doctor. I hope to call myself a ER Doctor in the future. Bless the work you all do.

full respect to all doctors and nurses working hard especially now during the pandemic.

As a medical graduate from india, I Love These Videos I learn more .

Thank you very much for your service to the public, especially now during the pandemic when the work is exhausting.

He's going to make one hell of a great attending!

Question for the audience: Am I the only one here who if they eat breakfast too soon after waking up, it makes them nauseated? It's been like this my entire life. My wife can wake up and eat breakfast at 6 AM or 9 AM if she wants to, but I find breakfast to be repulsive because my stomach does not agree I'm hungry until around 11 AM when I've been up and at it for hours. The human body is so perplexing to me that I would like for it to make sense as to why I feel that way chronically.

Wow 4 minute commute that’s insanely long I wonder how many breaks he has to take on the way their 😂. I have a half hr commute . I met someone the other day with 1.5hr commute every day each way screw that. Thanks for everything u do man we appreciate u guys

That you for all you do for your love please be safe to you nd all in the hospital

I appreciated their hardwork. Also, I got motivated to study more in a physiotherapy field.

8:48 Here Dr Irankunda is wearing a surgical 3M N95 respirator under his surgical mask. The red bands are the N95.

Awesome video. Congrats on your residency. Getting close to finishing. Again, congrats!!!!

I thought that said "clean the desk with COVID" until i heard the second part lol

Wow! This is our level one trauma center! People from Clermont County, part of the greater Cincinnati area, come to this hospital for treatment!

Well done, Very informative I really enjoyed watching you.

God bless you Stay safe ✝️🙏✝️🙏

I love these videos!

I love seeing diverse representation in medicine! We need more African American doctors!! Love this!

Thank god for the good folks that do this every day. The narration doesn't need to be here, sorry to say.

Informative but would like to see 1) incoming patient assessments 2) SRU evals

Love this! 👏

You are so cute. God bless you.

That’s a nice house for a resident

So many of the hoops that doctor's and nurses to be have to jump through are unnecessary. We need well trained doctor's, but I don't understand what's accomplished by making them be sleep deprived unnecessarily. You will face sleep deprivation throughout your medical career, but it's almost like sleep deprivation is applauded in medical settings. That needs to change. Sleep deprivation isn't a virtue in and of itself. Caffeine isn't strong enough to help, you need industrial strength stimulants to be a doctor, and that's especially true for nurses. I wish people understood and appreciated how much work people in the medical field have to go through, some of it pointless or just out of ritual/tradition. I hope we can reform medicine and remove some of the antiquated practices that make doctoring/nursing unnecessarily difficult. We also need to use taxes to find college and learning expenses. So many people think that doctor's are just wealthy, but they usually have so much debt from college and otherwise related expenses so much so that you only truly take home about as much as the receptionist! That's why there's a doctor shortage. Sorry for the long comment. I just feel passionately about making it easier (and cheaper) for people to become doctors and nurses. I want competent doctors, but so much of this stuff has gone too far. If you can heal the sick and have an abundance of knowledge and experience, all of this mentorship, fellowship, and residence stuff is excessive. At least it's excessive how it is done. Doctor's, nurses, and everyone who works in the medical field, including janitors, I must thank you for your work. My life has been saved by hospitals at least twice, and that isn't counting my hip replacement in 2017. Like firemen, medical professionals true heroes who endure abuse that they shouldn't be required to endure all because they want to help people.

Thanks

I worked there 20 years ago, I see not much has changed, I started when "CCP" was coming out of the ground!!!, and then the upper floors that were added, and the new heliport built. I cut ties when the" health alliance" started and staffing cuts were causing concerns!!!

This was good

"Daddy's going to work now. Can I have a hug and kiss?" somebody started cutting onions

How does he get to go home at 3pm? I thought residents usually work 12+ hours a shift.

My dream life.

What is SRU?

out by 15:07... What happens with the rest of the day?

It’s how he made sure to hug and kiss his son before leaving for work. So sweet and thoughtful of him ❤

I wish I could travel and learn medicine effectively. I need to be a good doctor ... I graduated 3 years ago...please advice me .. I wish I could start residency soon ... any advice????please help

Nice crib.

Is he from Rwanda?

Why did I see someone not wearing a mask correctly?

Unfortunately for him EM is a dying field, thank you for your cheap labor, fortunate to the rest of us.

Wait are you not a psychiatry resident ? Did you just dictate what you saw other doctors doing ?? I highly doubt a first year resident especially a psych resident would be allowed to make any decision that to in the early months of residency !

Thanksfully I dont go to uc hospital last time I was there I was in the worst pain of my life they didn't do anything about it

If I was married to a Doctor I would be making him breakfast, sorry, just saying.

something feels so wrong

hate the stupid captions so annoying can't turn it off
