Something for the Pain: Compassion and Burnout in the ER
Something for the Pain: Compassion and Burnout in the ER | Paul Austin
2 posts | 4 read | 11 to read
In this eye-opening account of life in the ER, Paul Austin recalls how the daily grind of long, erratic shifts and endless hordes of patients with sad stories sent him down a path of bitterness and cynicism. Gritty, powerful, and ultimately redemptive, Something for the Pain is a revealing glimpse into the fragility of compassion and sanity in the industrial setting of today s hospitals."

Doctors aren‘t always great writers. But Austin is. He describes well what it is like to deal with burnout and the day to day job of working in the ER.
