RN Amanda Trujillo Becomes a Call to Arms, by Jennifer Olin, BSN, RN, @JOlin2, #nurseup, #amandatrujillo

RN Amanda Trujillo Becomes a Call to Arms, by Jennifer Olin, BSN, RN, @JOlin2, #nurseup, #amandatrujillo:"It has been a call to arms. The story of Amanda Trujillo, RN, is sweeping the nursing blogosphere in just a matter of days. From the initial story released via Vernon Dutton, RN to the many followup blogs, a national petition and a support group seemingly grown out of nowhere, nurses are banding together to help one of their own. When Trujillo was first fired she reached out for support to nursing organizations in her home state of Arizona. That support was not forthcoming. As the months passed and her hearing in front of the Arizona State Board of Nursing was put off Trujillo decided to take matters into her own hands and look for support elsewhere. Long a fan of nurse/author Echo Heron, Trujillo sent her an email about her troubles. Heron forwarded that email to Dutton.
I recently spoke with Trujillo about her decision to seek help from strangers."

#RhodeIsland State #Nurses, Could This Happen To You? #nurseup #amandatrujillo #nursefriendly:"If you have been the victim of a situation like Amanda’s we’d like to hear your story. It is a story that is being repeated with the “Kennedy Nurses” in New York, with the “Sunrise Nurses” in Nevada, previously with the “Winkler Nurses” in Texas.
In each of these cases, it is interesting to note where the nurses turned for support. These situations happen every day. We would like Nurseup.com to become a clearinghouse for nurses in these types of situations. We want to compile lists of organizations that can help nurses in these types of situations."

Report A Bad Doctor To The Authorities, Go To Jail? (Winkler Nurses), February 8, 2010 #nurseup #nursefriendly #winklernurses

Report A Bad Doctor To The Authorities, Go To Jail? (Winkler Nurses), February 8, 2010 #nurseup #nursefriendly #winklernurses:"About five months ago, I blogged about a true miscarriage of justice, the sort of thing that should never, ever h...appen. In brief, it was the story of two nurses who, disturbed at how a local doctor was peddling his dubious “herbal” concoctions in the emergency room of the local hospital when he came in to see patients, reported him to the authorities. Moreover, they had gone up the chain of command, first complaining to hospital authorities. After nothing happened for months, they decided to report the physician, Dr. Rolando Arafiles, Jr., to the Texas Medical Board because they honestly believed that this physician was abusing his trust with patients and behaving unethically by improperly hawking herbal supplements that he was selling in the rural health clinic and the emergency room of Winkler County Memorial Hospital."

Psychiatric Nurse, Sued By hospital After Developing Relationship With Client? #nurseup #nursefriendly #healthcare

NurseFriendly posted an update right now

Psychiatric Nurse, Sued By hospital After Developing Relationship With Client? Summary: Doctors and Nurses by nature of their positions deal with patients when they are vulnerable, off-balance and emotionally needy. When the population includes the psychiatric patient, the potential exists for a client to develop ”feelings” for the caregiver. In this case, a sexually abused mother of three was admitted for multiple mental disturbances. During the course of the treatment, a relationship developed and led to sexual encounters following discharge. When it came to light, the patient successfully sued. The hospital would attempt to recover damages against the nurse following her testimony in defense of the facility. This is commonly called a Subrogation action.
Wright v. Mercy Hosp. Of Janesville – 557 N.W. 2d 846 – WI (1996)

Premature Child of Cocaine Addicted Mother Survives Abortion. Physician Order: Leave To Die?:"The premature birth of a child under normal circumstances requires highly skilled nursing and medical care if the child is to survive. The birth of a premature child to a known Cocaine addicted mother greatly increased the risks of mortality. In this case, a child intended to be aborted is born alive. When the physician orders that the child be to left to die, it miraculously survives on its own. Were the nurses liable for "following orders?"

Hartsell v. Fort Sanders Reg. Med. Ctr. 905 S.W. 2d 944 - TN (1995).

Pregnant Prison Inmate Complains of Miscarriage, Corrections Nurse On Duty Ignores Symptoms? #nursefriendly #nurseup #healthcare

Pregnant Prison Inmate Complains of Miscarriage, Corrections Nurse On Duty Ignores Symptoms?:"Summary: Nursing assessment skills are one of our most valuable assets. They allow us to effectively evaluate our patients and communicate significant findings to physicians and other members of the healthcare team. In this case, a pregnant woman with a previous history of miscarriage complained of vaginal bleeding and abdominal discomfort. The assessment performed by the nurse fell negligently short of the required standard of care.Ferris v. County of Kennebec, 44 5. Supp.2d 62 –ME (1999)

#Physician #Restraint Orders Unclear On Transfer, Do You Apply In The Interim? #nursefriendly #nursing

NurseFriendly posted an update 1 hour, 57 minutes ago

#Physician #Restraint Orders Unclear On Transfer, Do You Apply In The Interim? #nursefriendly #nursing:”The use of Mechanical or Physical Restraints on confused patients is highly controversial. Due to substantial Death & Injury attributed to their use they are considered a last resort measure in providing for the safety of a patient. In this case, orders specifying what restraints and when they were to be used were unclear. In a patient that was clearly at high risk for injury, should they have been applied till the physician could have been contacted?”
