{"product_id":"9781554683918","title":"The Night Shift","description":"Dr. Brian Goldman is both an emergency room physician at Mount Sinai and a prominent medical journalist. Never one to shy away from controversy, Goldman specializes in kicking open the doors to the medical establishment, revealing what really goes on behind the scenes -- and in the minds of doctors and nurses. \u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Night Shift\u003c\/em\u003e, Goldman shares his experiences in the witching hours at Mount Sinai Hospital in downtown Toronto. We meet the kinds of patients who walk into an ER after midnight: late-night revellers injured on their way home after last call, teens assaulted in the streets by other teens and a woman who punches another woman out of jealousy over a man. But Goldman also reveals the emotional, heartbreaking side of everyday ER visits: adult children forced to make life and death decisions about critically ill parents, victims of sexual assault, and mentally ill and homeless patients looking for understanding and a quick fix in the twenty-four-hour waiting room. Written with Goldman’s trademark honesty and with surprising humour, \u003cem\u003eThe Night Shift\u003c\/em\u003e is also a frank look at many issues facing the medical profession today, and offers a highly compelling inside view into an often shrouded world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dr. Brian Goldman (CA)","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":48003270803616,"sku":"9781554683918","price":12.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8637\/5072\/files\/BNCImageAPI_824cef5d-4c4b-4abd-975a-6185a25ede9f.jpg?v=1703347208","url":"https:\/\/rivendell-books.com\/products\/9781554683918","provider":"Rivendell Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
