Hawthorne
Every patient needs a hero.
Created by John Masius
On TNT
A compassionate medical drama centered on a nurse protagonist fighting for her patients' humanity within a system that often fails them, balancing professional heroism against personal cost.
Christina Hawthorne is a compassionate and headstrong Chief Nursing Officer heading up a group of dedicated nurses at Richmond Trinity Hospital on the hospital's front lines. She does everything in her power to help her patients. When necessary, she takes on doctors and administrators who are overworked, distracted or just unable to see the human being behind the hospital chart. But the long days at the hospital and Hawthorne’s intense focus on helping others take a toll on her personal life.
