  1. What happens when a max security inmate is unconscious in their cell?

    tbrd450 replied to stephied's topic in Correctional

    "Security first (breathing second)" wow.. that says it all, doesn't it? Curious... in your opinion, has such a philosophy ever cost an inmate his/her life? Or, permanent brain

  2. Patient modesty concerns pertaining to surgery

    tbrd450 replied to creinkent's topic in Operating Room

    "Ignoring patients' wishes? Not that we know of because no one has communicated such a desire, and nurses are not mind readers. Don't communicate, we don't know such a problem exists." However, many...

  3. Patient modesty concerns pertaining to surgery

    tbrd450 replied to creinkent's topic in Operating Room

    I just think that striving for same-gender team environment options is fundamentally futile. There are way too many dynamics involved, not the least of which are: competence, training, scheduling,...

  4. Patient modesty concerns pertaining to surgery

    One of the problems with accommodating female only preferences is that it necessarily means that males will likely find themselves that much farther away from gaining access to one day gaining...

  5. Dangers of Labeling Inmates - Stories Sought

    tbrd450 replied to Guest371144's topic in Correctional

    Absolutely!... You touched on some very good points. The "dominant custody culture" is very powerful. It can be dangerous. A study in conformity was conducted back in 1951. A social...

  6. What would I do?

    tbrd450 replied to tbrd450's topic in Correctional

    I agree. Otherwise decent people will stand by as a fellow human being is brutally beaten to death. But I happen to believe that those who swear an oath, choose to wear a uniform, and choose to put...

  7. What would I do?

    tbrd450 replied to tbrd450's topic in Correctional

    Work&PLay, Thank you for presenting this example. I couldn't imagine finding a more precise example that exemplifies the clear dichotomous consideration and intervention afforded two separate...

  8. What would I do?

    tbrd450 replied to tbrd450's topic in Correctional

    YES! You get it. The minute the crime was committed -- the officer that attacks the arrestee as he is removing his shoes -- a call should have gone out that a crime is underway. Somebody in that...

  9. VERY POOR JUDGEMENT

    tbrd450 replied to HIPPIECHIKRN's topic in Correctional

    These people are patients in need of care. They can not admit themselves into an emergency room, they are trapped and totally dependent on others (you). You are absolutely right in recognizing the...

  10. Dangers of Labeling Inmates - Stories Sought

    tbrd450 replied to Guest371144's topic in Correctional

    Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly....

  11. Dangers of Labeling Inmates - Stories Sought

    tbrd450 replied to Guest371144's topic in Correctional

    The dangers of labeling anyone, but especially those most vulnerable and in need of advocacy, are that you, as the potential labeler, become desensitized to those different than yourself. You begin...

  13. Patient modesty concerns pertaining to surgery

    tbrd450 replied to creinkent's topic in Operating Room

    Is the real key in all this .. "necessity?" What is medically necessary, not what is medically convenient. It ultimately becomes, I think, a weighing or balancing of patient modesty with medical...

    Anne128, I sort of thought maybe you didn't really mean "absolutely not" (re: doing nothing more than documenting). But thanks for clarifying. And, thanks for the advice - I did take a few deep...
