What Season 11 of ER

Season 11 of ER sets the action at County General, where patients pour in and time barely allows for care. Gunshot victims, homeless children and cardiac cases follow one another, and the team must make decisions in minutes. Susan Lewis takes over as head of the department, but her colleagues don't always listen to her. Corday and Chen weigh their careers against their families, and Abby discovers that being a good doctor demands as much as being a good nurse. Ray Barnett, a doctor by day and a rock star by night, joins the team. Carter, who started as a student and now leads the group, sets the tone of the ER and takes on what Greene left behind.
