Carson would freely admit it to anyone who asked. In fact, he would often volunteer the information if they didn’t.

He wasn’t supposed to be in America.

He should have stayed in Edinburgh, where he understood the system, worked only eighty hours a week and got paid what he deserved for it.

It was the inevitable follow-up question that he ( Read more... )

Yay! (I'm also planning on working in Keller soon too :D) How much fun is this?

I really liked this story ( ... )

I didn't know that we were set in Chicago? Are we? I just made it General Hospital as a, well, General thing :p. But if we are in Chicago then yay Cook County! Isn't that where ER is set?

We actually use SOAP here as well. Some of us. I was taught a few different systems, and just use an amalgamation. *shrugs* it works best for me :)and people can read my notes. I intend on wrting more than four stories though, so I needed more headings :P.

(I actually work in Australia, not the UK, but our training systems are very similar).

But Yay! THe stuff Iwas worrying about you didn't even point out, so whoo! I must be on the right track! Thanks SO much for the feedback :) Not at all obnoxious!

(However, what is a medical informatician? I have never heard the term before!)

We make software for the medical community. I feel stupid even writing it. Totally a case of academics spending WAY too much defining their own field. The idea is Medical Informatics = Medicine + Information + Technology. One of my professors spent over 30 minutes defining medical informatics in a lecture.

Oooh, Australia... We always hear about how much cooler you guys are re: Medical IT and electronic health records too.

I just checked and I'm TOTALLY wrong about it being Chicago. The city is left undefined, and so far, no one has said what city it is. The apartment building looks very Chicago-ish, Jack O'Neill was born in Chicago, and of course, we know that Daniel went to graduate school in Chicago. But in this AU, city is still unknown.

Awww, very cute! Janet as a med student is definitely fun. And it's awesome that you're actually a doctor writing her. Very cool.

Since you asked, I hope you don't mind one little reverse Brit-pik (American-pik doesn't have any ring to it). I've noticed that my UK and Australian friends use the word hospital without the article but an American would say 'in the hospital' not 'in hospital'.

duly noted thank you so much :).

Glad you enjoyed this! Too much fun :)

I was thinking - in honour of your new Dr status, maybe you could write a story where Janet finishes her final year too? *g*
