Geez, another bad medical drama

Nurses General Nursing

So I have been watching Trauma on NBC and I thought, hey, they made Mercy they are attempting to show RN's in a good light. So because the show is mainly about paramedics and EMTs, they are hardly ever at a hospital they couldn't really show the nurse in a bad light......WRONG.

Watching the show right now and the paramedics come to the hospital and give report to the MD, with the MDs doing all the nursing work and the nurses are standing around the desk talking about which paramedic they slept with. :uhoh3:

Specializes in Gerontology, nursing education.

I really, really dislike Trauma. The characters are unbelievable, the plots are contrived, and the show portrays nurses as part of the room decor. Even though they aren't realistic, I definitely prefer the three nurse shows: Nurse Jackie, Mercy and HawthoRNe.
