   In wake of RaDonda Vaught trial, KY passes bill to decriminalize medical errors

   Wuzzie replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

   At least there's a provision that covers negligence. Let's hope the Kentucky BON actually does its jobs if a situation like the one the Tennessee BON so horribly bungled ever comes up.

   I agree that old discussions have value. My point was that scolding the OP was pointless.

   I Don't Get the Anxiety Part of Nursing

   Wuzzie replied to missmollie's topic in General Nursing

   Just wanted to point out that this was posted 9 years. ago and the OP hasn't been on the site since 2021. Scolding her is probably pointless.

   Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

   Wuzzie replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Except according to the TBI investigation the ADS system did, in fact, give warnings. Multiple ones. Electronic and on the actual cubby she pulled the Vec from. The vial even had a warning on it. Earlier discussions suggested "alarm fatigue" or too m...

   Paramedics Criminally Charged/Convicted

   Wuzzie replied to emtpbill's topic in General Nursing

   I don't at the moment but I have extensive ED experience as an RN and try to keep my knowledge base up to date. Chemical restraint must be a regional thing. It's not common here. I verified this with a friend who is our current fire chief.

    Paramedics Criminally Charged/Convicted

    Wuzzie replied to emtpbill's topic in General Nursing

    Is having paramedics chemically restrain out of control suspects a thing?! I've never heard of it and it wasn't part of my training. When did they start taking orders from LEOs? Ketamine seems like such a risky choice. Even in the ED we would have us...

    Wuzzie replied to NewGradNurze's topic in General Nursing

    Wuzzie replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    Wuzzie replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Did I say that? Hyperbole is not beneficial in these types of discussions. I have a difficult time believing she is suffering all that much making 10k a shot to tell people how this was all the fault of a system that did her wrong. Did you hear about...
