I think it’s okay to say that RaDanda’s med error does justify getting her license revoked.
It’s what happened after, Vanderbilt throwing her under the bus while taking no blame, getting criminally charged, that is the problem.

I am so tired of having an orientee. I am mentally tired of teaching not only critical care, but critical thinking and BASIC nursing skills.
COVID really fucked up these new nurses.
Let me vent, didn’t say I wasn’t going to teach her. It’s just mentally exhausting.

My cousin got assaulted at school last week by some boys… the school said they couldn’t do anything, the deputy said it was only sexual harassment and they couldn’t do anything..
I called the news station and told them.
Guess what school just called saying they found the boy?

Something terrible happened at my hospital and it hasn’t made the news, it’s just so heart breaking.
And I really hope it doesn’t make the news. No one’s pain and suffering should be on the news for everyone to criticize.

Don’t take life for granted. One day you can be the healthiest 20something year old and the next day you’re brain dead with only 2 nurses standing next to you as your heart stops.

Does your hospital do transfers during shift change?? If they don’t, can I see your policy?? I am trying to get this started because it is so unsafe but upper management does not care.

I’m sorry for everything you went through. But that dark and twisty humor is helping the nurses cope with the traumatizing things they are seeing. I promise you each one cared more than you know.
Dark and twisty humour at the time I was being placed into a coma and my husband was inconsolable not being allowed in theatre to see either of us. The NMC did not regard this information as important for the individuals case. To me it marks zero empathy and professionalism 😭
