ER was a television medical drama centered on the emergency room doctors, nurses, and staff of County General Hospital, a fictional trauma center in Chicago. It focuses on the intense challenges and life-and-death decisions they face daily. Although medical emergencies regularly figured into the show’s main plot, the narrative was also driven by other tensions. Some of these, such as crowded waiting rooms, staff shortages, and training new doctors, related to the practice of medicine, but other plot elements dealt with the characters’ personal lives and relationships.
