| Summary |
The series takes place in the geriatric wing of a struggling hospital and follows a staff of overworked doctors and nurses and their elderly patients. Though the tone is darkly comic, this critically-acclaimed series addresses very real issues such as death, hopelessness, abusive patients and the things it takes to survive a high-stress work environment. The hospital's care workers do whatever it takes to stay sane while dealing with unruly patients, their children and their bosses. |
