Sure, because everybody knows an individual who was pursued by an attorney, lost their house, and auto, and future wages! (NOT) (hehehe)
LarryG, it is still obvious that you have NO legal experience, or you would have "an awakening".
I am sure, as a student, that you ask advise from "old" nurses. Surely you accept that experience is the best teacher? Why do you refer to my advice as fertilizer? Do you treat the OB/BYN, CCU, ER, or Surgical staff this way when they give advice?
I am not giving my opinion... I am talking from EXPERIENCE.
As a
old nurse (23 years) who also worked in the med/mal/neg field, I have this experience. I believed as the other nurses do, until actually working on "the other side", I had an "awakening". Wow. A light goes off, and you realize the you have been fed "fertilizer" for years by uninformed nurses, and the propoganda machine.
Stop, put on the thinking caps, and concentrate... there are sooo many attorneys, that many work as paralegals.... If it is sooo easy to sue individual nurses.... we would all know someone who lost their #$&)* right???. But, we don't because they don't.
No where on this site have I been able to find ONE nurse who lost their house because they didn't have insurance... Isn't that odd? But, golly, it is such a SMALL thread, only reaching millions.
Seriously, it just doesn't happen.
