Re: The Ultimate Jobsworth?
I find your comment offensive.
This incident happened in the US....so it isn't something that obviously affects you.
You do not know the full facts of the situation(only what has been reported by the media - which is sometimes skewed for sensationalistic journalism purposes).
This elderly lady may have had an 'end stage disease' and may have had a DNR protocol attached to her notes.......DNR is Do not resuscitate.
I don't know if this was the case, but then neither do you....but you feel that you can offer a value judgement about the character of this nurse....and use derogatory terms to describe her. Uncalled for and unwarranted.
The fact that the family have not acted against the Care Home makes me believe that the nurse was doing what was in the Nursing orders.
