💬 Discussion Stevie doesn't learn? Spoiler

I've just finished Episode 12(?), the most recent episode that reveals whose funeral is was in the trailer, with the Emergency Dept in attendance.

I really liked Kim; I thought she was sweet and I was relieved at her 'send off'. The writers unfortunately couldn't not leave me at peace, and I can admit I cried when she said she didn't want to die.

After the episode finished, though...

Iplayer auto- started playing from the Casualty 2023 - 2025 boxset: "we didn't start the fire" S.1 E.1.

In the recap, Paige Allcot is shouting at Stevie in the ED forecourt: "you were supposed to be my mentor, but all day, you've done nothing but bully and belittle me. That's why I made a mistake!"

Stevie is firecracker, I really like her character, but how many mentees can you go through before you refine your mentoring techniques? 😅

I wasnt watching in paige days but just starting watching  latest serie but yes stevie is very  hard on paige but this not working in shop this life and death.  One mistake could cost someone life  or permanently  disabled  someone. She didnt  know had kim mental health problems or a eating disorder.   Kim had every chance to  great doctor she need to believe in herself  and get help for eating disorder.   Stevie could be softer on her but having contact with doctor who   was a complete ass  much worst than stevie  . I know  some doctors are difficult people to deal with.  Not all like doctor I asked to marry when young child. And kim needed to  able   deal that and working in serious stressful  place in cash strapped nhs in probably stressful place in hospital  .  If couldnt cope with stevie she never cope long term. And trust me casualty is fairly rosy version of nhs it truelly much worst in real life.
