1. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   And another reply that has nothing to do with what I said. You talk about the blame they assigned her, yet your claim was they assigned zero blame to Vanderbilt. I proved you were wrong, quoted and sourced. Or she is used to looking, meds...

2. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   I just quoted an investigator saying what I said. Can you source them saying Vanderbilt shared no blame? You know, it should be easy Captain Obvious.

3. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Except you are absolutely wrong. The 'upgrade' is what causes the problems. Vaught said they were instructed and forced to use overrides, can you show me where that was proven false? This testimony — from a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation agen...

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Sorry, there are other actors also to blame, her mistakes are her own, but unlike you I refuse to assign blame to her for the mistakes of others. Oh, and EVERY agency agrees with me, the prosecutors agree with me, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigatio...

   We give versed all the time. I also give vecuronium.

6. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   So a non-answer, because the answer doesn't fit your narrative, I had hoped for better. If the system worked as intended the patient would be alive. Vanderbilt had a broken system, that was the first chain in the events leading to this death.

   At Vanderbilt that was NOT what an override was. An override was every med, after verification, because their system was broken.

8. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Override was allowed because that was the only way for them to pull ANY med. Tylenol, IV fluids, every med required an override because of a system 'upgrade' that broke the system preventing meds from being pulled the right way, so EVERY med was allo...

9. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   She tried pulling the correct med and the system wouldn't allow it, forcing a med override. If the system let her pull the med as intended, would the patient be alive?

10. Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    FallingSkies replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    What people don't talk about is Vanderbilt doing an 'upgrade' that prevented nurses from pulling medications appropriately, forcing them to use override on almost all medications they pulled. Vanderbilt then tried to cover it, did not notify state or...

11. Refusing to Sign Off On Others Assessments

    FallingSkies replied to Googlenurse's topic in General Nursing

    I think in this case it's a principle of the matter, not the matter itself. The RN is asked to do extra work, is never offered assistance, and is expected to take on some supervisor tasks without the benefit of supervisor pay, and insulted them with ...

12. Refusing to Sign Off On Others Assessments

    FallingSkies replied to Googlenurse's topic in General Nursing

    So they would have to do the assessment, I would never sign off on an assessment I did not also do to ensure it was correct. That would mean she would be doing the job of the supervisor without being the supervisor. They are trying to screw them into...
