Okay, I deleted the other thread, Barb! :)
After reading the article, Barb, I like to think that a nurse with your experience wouldn't have ignored such very severe ongoing pain. Did they think that maybe she was in drug withdrawal, or trying to get narcotics by faking it?
Hard to know the full story on these news articles.
First of all it was not me. I am glad I have the sense to do a cbc.
This was in yesterday's papers and on all local news.
She was in custody for a 60 day sentence. this happened in her forth of 12 weeks and they let her go to the half way house at about week 8. I got it from tv, the time table.
She was 6 weeks pregnant when she complained of pain. The nuse in corrections never did an exam. Decided it was VD and Constipation and gave MOM. Period.
I am not in corrections nursing, I am in Forensics.
Here is another South Florida Corrections Screw up
