A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Emergency Department. Its a Level One Trauma center, so down time is not predictable.

Why not just say emergency room rather than an acronym nobody in the general population uses? There was a whole tv show about this for like 25 years.
