Had the misfortune of seeing staff in the critical care unit in Charing Cross Hospital 8 years ago when my brother was in there.
How the foc staff work in that place is totally beyond me?
I constantly whinge about having a shitty busy day at work, but these kind of people must go home and have nightmares everynight, i simply don't get how they switch off?
Got the utmost respect for all medical people, without them we'd all be doomed! 
Anytime someone cuts a finger at my work i always shout out "Get the defibrillator." which never seems to go down too well for some reason?

Got a really good friend who's a paramedic too, he's done the lot, rapid response, ambulance, helicopter, etc, and he's told me some amazing stories......but......if you vomit, you're on you're own.....he doesn't do puke at all!

Hospital staff in general all deserve medals.

I broke my hip a couple of years ago and my treatment was 2nd to none. I worked nights at the time and after getting over the initial shock and used to the med's I was up all night, the lass's on the ward waited hand and foot on me without once complaining

I fully understand it's their job, but you simply can't knock a medic.
Fortunately for me my doctor also drinks down my pub, i was off last year with a fractured hip and he was constantly asking if i was okay.
The downside was there was no room for the odd white lie when on his turf.

My Ex doc was a motorcyclist so I'd pop in for whatever reason and walk out half an hour later lol
