You’ve heard that doctors and nurses are ‘the front lines’ in this COVID battle — the truth is in any ER in America on any given day we are always the front line. My nursing colleagues are always asked to do more with less. There are never enough ICU beds. Our normal is a borderline disaster, and yet somehow among us — even now — compassion and empathy still shines through most.
