What Season 1 of Chicago Med
The season kicks off with the opening of the new emergency department at Gaffney Chicago Medical Center, when a flood of accident victims puts administrator Sharon Goodwin and her team to the test. From there, doctors and nurses race against the clock on cases ranging from a teenager who has just given birth and a missing baby to shootings in a movie theater. Personal problems weigh as heavily as the medical ones. Dr. Connor Rhodes faces his past when he reconnects with his sister, Dr. Ethan Choi is dealing with issues of his own, and Dr. Will Halstead faces a pending lawsuit. Doubts about diagnoses and decisions put the team under strain.
