But what if you are a manager?

Mike Munchak and Bruce Matthews were elite guards. While Bruce Matthews played some tackle he was never a all-pro or pro-bowler as a tackle. Here's a few more relevant comparisons:

It is still a hospital, and hospitals are best avoided.

Based on what I've heard and seen, Vandy seems a lot like Boeing when it comes to priorities.

It’s all in the script. DJT will do a stock buyback, then Russia can give Trump more money for the price of a single fighter jet.

There’s a lot of times on this site where the question is asked “whose fault is it?” Many times there’s a choice between punching down at an individual, or holding an org accountable. In this case, the lawyer for the org and the prosecutor punched down on the individual. After which: - The individual received no sentence from the judge who was fully aware of the law and facts. - The institution had to take corrective action to continue to receive Medicare funding from the auditors fully aware of the facts of the case. My rant, starting with ann admittedly off topic post, is this - the individual was thrown under the bus to hide the failures of the org. Don’t appeal to the authority of your ex to win this argument unless she’s willing to join the thread.

The judge also sentenced the nurse to time served. Why didn’t the judge give the nurse a jail sentence if she was at fault?

The video doesn't look good

The disconnect is strange. Medicare threatened to cut Vandy off until they agreed to a corrective action plan. You don't trust VUMC with your own health. But then you are so quick to parrot the deflection towards the individual.

Vandy reported the death as "natural causes" to the medical examiner even after the nurse reported their own mistake. How many other times has this happened and been swept under the rug? How can outcomes improve if institutionally the response is to pretend they don't happen? I'd call that a "grossly negligent" response to an incident resulting in the death of a patient.

I've been hearing about problems with Vandy IT and RVU obsessed management for decades now. It's a systemic problem, not a one nurse issue. People who know exactly how Vandy operates go to Centennial for treatment.

I find it hard to believe your Vandy nurse ex never encountered a problem with a Vandy computer system.

Bartender, performance mechanics, nursing, football - is there anything @IsntLifeFunny can't do?

O rly tell me more

Rant: The prosecution of that nurse was a travesty. She was given I believe an oral order, made a mistake, reported the mistake, and got hung out to dry by Vandy risk management. Meanwhile Vandy ignored that their drug dispensing system didn't recognize the drug name ordered by the doctor and reported the death as "natural causes" to the medical examiner. The judge sentenced the nurse to time served for that bs. Meanwhile, Vandy University Medical Center continues it's downward spiral. Never go to Vandy, it's basically Boeing at this point.
