Not related to OP’s post but chiming in because it’s not fair to say July doctors have no idea what they’re doing. By the time an intern walks through the door to care for a patient, they’ve had 4 years of undergraduate schooling, 4 years of medical school training, thousands of hours of clinical experience, and have passed multiple rigorous exams to prove their knowledge. The biggest difference is that knowing what to do on paper doesn’t mean you know how to get it done at that specific hospital on that specific floor etc etc. Also, it’s perfectly normal for someone starting a new job to look like they’re still figuring things out, especially if lives are on the line. Everyone has to start somewhere and that’s ok. Lastly, medical care is team based and having an intern on the team means the senior resident and attending are right around the corner. That’s at minimum three physicians working together to care for one patient. There are many reasons why the hospital feels unsafe right now but I don’t think this is one of them.
