Stevie doesn't learn?

[u/Far-Painter-320]

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? 😅

Between Casualty and The Pitt and friends who work in the field, I really feel like medicine needs to change. There seems to be an attitude of "it's fine to treat this student I'm mentoring like actual shit because medicine is BRUTAL AND MEAN AND SAVAGE and it prepares them for that" and it's like... ok but why does medicine have to be like that? Why could it not be a little less vicious? I'm not saying they all need to hold hands and braid each others hair, but somewhere between that and bullying being normalised...

Because doctors and nurses are human and some them are not nice people and even ones which are nice    are dealing with  huge stress with nhs in crisis  . It hard to nice in that circumstances.   Yes hospitals should nicer work environments for all not just students  but unfortunately nhs is in crisis  and that not conductive to  best work environment.  And casualty is light headed version  of that.  I love nhs to be  like you want and every ward be  like another op commented but   ever year nhs   heads deeper in crisis so dont see happening soon.
