Hi. My grandmother knows more about medicine than you will ever know, my brother was the Commander of the tenth medical wing for USAF and had over 10,000 service members and their families under his care - director of the VA and currently runs the largest hospital group in a particular state... (Timothy Dean Ballard, MD Col. USAF - if you care to fact check my bullshit) and the personal flight surgeon to the joint chiefs at the pentagon (general Shelton)... Ive built more hospitals than you have stepped in.... My aunt is the head NICU nurse at El Camino Hospital in Mountain View Ca, (the hospital of the future) one of the many hospitals I built... (el Camino, UCSF, SFGH, Sequoia, Nome, Methodist) yeah im a little closer to this subject than you may have assumed. And if you think an ER nurse "just does what a doctor says" You know absolutely nothing of top nurses. They wear the pants. I'm comfortable with my statement. So, thankfully you don't know what to say.

I am close with several ICU and cardiac nurses. They are experts at what they do, so in a sense you could call them medical experts. However they are medical experts in the same way that a plumber is a construction expert. I would not be surprised if a plumber was caught off guard by lighting codes. The term is so broad as to be meaningless in practical application.

  Cool. I dont have a medical degree - but I can design hospitals (and have) so your approximation of knowledge/ability to the problem at hand is meaningless.

      You have literally no idea how much impact an individual can have on a project....(We typically call them 'Architects'...) but your scorn is well met ; It DOES take a team of countless -- and I have also been literally the sole designer of things that relied on thousands to implement. Thanks for your disinterest.
