Chicago Med Season 10 episode 4: A complicated return
Jackie Nelson returned to Chicago Med Season 10 in episode 4, which brought attention to the balance between supporting a colleague in recovery and acknowledging the realities of mental illness.
Previously, Jackie was shown as a character struggling with her problems, including hurting herself to deal with the stress of working in the emergency room. In Season 10, she tries to return to her job but faces challenges, mostly because of Maggie's protective instincts.
Maggie's fear of triggering a relapse in Jackie hindered her from allotting urgent cases to her. She rather gave her several custodial jobs and even commended her to clean the supply closet, instead of helping the doctors.
By limiting Jackie's role in the ED, Maggie unintentionally slows down her colleague's recovery. Jackie's drive to prove what she can do, remained crucial as it demonstrated that recovery is a continuous process that needs trust and chances to grow. Chicago Med Season 10 episode 4 highlighted the complex relationship between Jackie and Maggie.
