Dr. G's Podcast Series

Routines and Habits can Kill

Sinopse

This is the first in a series of 4 Podcasts targeted primarily for my Anatomy and Physiology students as food for thought and discussion. I present two cases in which the patients ended up dead after being admitted to the ER. Arguably, both patients died because of routines/habits/ attitudes leading to delay and error in their treatment. What are the attitudes and habits future nurses should bring along and develop, respectively? The associated picture is a depiction of Janus, a Greek deity, looking simulanously into the past and into the future. It can be interpreted too as a symbol for the dual nature of humans, the interdependence of anatomy and physiology , appearence vs substance .... like I said, food for thought.
