The risk management team at my hospital is faced with their latest case involving a visitor filming staff during a code. A female patient coded and didn't make it. One of the patient's male visitors, who apparently was not POA nor even related to the patient, threatened to sue the hospital and everyone involved. He said "I have you all on video and I'm going to post it online for everyone to see."
This brings a couple questions to mind.
First, what was he even doing in the room? Why didn't they clear him out? And how/why did no one notice? Only thing I can think of is he was standing outside of the room and discreetly filming while pretending to use the phone. Also, what kind of sicko films a code? Finally, and most importantly, it brings up sincere concern about our privacy as nurses.
