Standing in the trauma room of an emergency department is like standing at ground zero of any nuclear reaction, only it's not radiation that is released - but stories. Stories that are told and retold, sometimes just before end of the shift, but sometimes for many years. A survivor of domestic violence helps it be to a healthcare facility but cannot trust anyone. An anonymous man dies after being taken to the emergency room, and nobody can identify him. The spouse of any cancer patient must decide whether to force her to endure chemotherapy or even to let her pass away in peace. These stories - and all the others in People of the ER - grapple using what this means to be human when confronted with trauma and death. Written by the writer of Trauma Room Two, People of the ER delves deeper in to the lives of the patients and staff that work in a little, rural emergency room.
