  1. I am a new grad, applying to new grad. programs. I am looking to get into critical care, but med/surg would be fine. I am having trouble writing the essay about a difficult experience during a clinical rotation. My top three options at the moment are: 1.) A code my second week of school, elderly pt., the room was filled with hc providers, there wasn't anything for me to do, (as far as I could tell my second week of school), I stayed with the patient's daughter, comforted her. Then she decides she wants the code to stop, wants to let her mom go. I tried to tell someone, the first person told me she was with pharmacy, and that was not her job. Then I found my nurse, told her, just as the code was winding down, the patient was alright. 2)I was in the ICU with a patient who had been transferred from a ltc facility. The doc came, stayed very briefly, as he was leaving, the patient said "doctor, what about me? What will my quality of life be?" The doc, didn't make eye contact, said "I'm not sure" and left. I stayed and talked to the patient for a long time, mostly just listening to him. He thanks me, end of story. 3)An elderly Chinese woman with stomach cancer, her son doesn't want her to know. I felt uncomfortable with this situation, but I went along with it, because it wasn't my place to intervene. Those are the situations I am trying to decide between. ANY advice, guidance would be great. Thanks for your help!
