Being at a facility that manages complications is not for the weak. Patients arrive mostly in end stages. Some after a long journey through self-treatment, clinics, herbalists, religious centers, then local health centers before finally reaching us. Yet, outcomes are judged solely based on what happens here.
Interestingly, when we leave this environment and go to facilities where fresh cases are seen, we are called heroes, veterans and we perform exceptionally. But back here, where the most critical and complex cases are seen, the public judge differently.
The staff at JFK deserve additional allowance. The level of knowledge, skill, and effort required here is on a different scale.
