Telling someone they have cancer and that they should "spend their time" is extremely dangerous. It is absolutely not something you should do if you're not a thousand percent sure (of course, you should also have the credentials to say such a thing). Who knows what the patient or his family might end up doing? The incident should be reported and she should be punished accordingly. Since hospitals can get sued over this, they will probably decide to terminate her contract. That's the way the market works, unfortunately for her.
yeah dudes this. why would I care about EYE FOR AN EYE? you realize that like...this is incredibly horrible to do, right? like someone less psychologically stable (LoL) would probably do something drastic. there's a reason you don't tell people awful diagnoses in public.
like...do you think people shouldn't be fired at all for anything or something here? this is like the WORST POSSIBLE THING TO DO, honestly, and most of you would be okay with someone being fired if they messed up an order for the fifth damn time or whatever. it's not like she meant to say something nicer and was like OH SHIT I MEAN IT JUST
LOOKS LIKE IT IT'S HONESTLY PROBABLY SOMETHING ELSE, she meant to tell me
you're gonna die.
this isn't vindictiveness; if she's right or wrong, I don't care. there are other people out there she's going to make this mistake on and I'd rather she get fired. fuck compassion, you're telling people they are going to die! there's no issue of compassion there, if anything the compassionate thing to do is to stop the person from doing it again!
seriously this isn't some little fuck up like "well we have to do the xray again", this is a woman who told me I was going to die when she had no idea if I even had cancer or am even REALLY SICK, just that I have a lump in my chest that can mean anything from tuberculosis to a childhood scar. that's really fucked up and obviously scared the shit out of me (I wouldn't make a topic saying I'M GONNA DIE I THINK if it didn't) and I do not care about her twenty kids, you don't tell people they are going to die when you don't actually know they are going to die, you don't tell them in a public emergency room without even so much of a warning, and you don't tell them when you aren't even qualified to tell them.
there's a reason it's called a profession, because there's some degree of professionalism involved and this was highly against that.
it would be sad if you did have cancer and spent your days going to court to testify againts a nurse .-.
...have you ever leveled a complaint against anyone before? you don't go to COURT what the fuck.
