I spent a long time typing up something similar to this, but you’ve done a much better job that I would have.

I might come across as abrasive myself in this comment, you are free to completely discard anything I write.
You were fired after only 8 weeks from a position as ER nurse. Aren’t ER nurses quite difficult to find? 8 weeks is a pretty short time. So the managers considered, after such a short time, that it was better to loose you than to keep you. That having you in their team was a negative. And they didn’t warn you, so they thought that either you would not heed the warning or that your behavior was too serious a liability for them that they would skip the warning all together.
Considering this, I would encourage you to find their point of view on the matter. Even if it seems to you that everything was good, did you overlook communication? Did you act as a lone wolf in a team? Did you overlook to show off your own contributions? Each one could have significant ramifications.
The examples you give are quite extreme, did you communicate about them correctly or could you communication look like pointing fingers? Did you follow up on them in the way that is usually used in the team? Did you make an enemy of a key player?
I know work politics can be exhausting. In this direction, I don’t have advice other than learning from every experience.

I didn’t find you abrasive. Abrasive would be to start insulting, writing all caps, insinuating with no facts, ranting… like trump
so it’s not enough doing my job but I actually have to show off like a… show off what I actually do? this is childish (don’t want to start an argument with you, just pointing out this is childish…)
acting as a lone wolf: no more than my coworkers: some coworkers like working all alone, other are more collaborative. The ones that work alone, I leave them alone.
that I don’t know. I just want a quiet life.
