Some reader here claims that "she didn't know how to use the machine". IF that is the case, she has NO business having that job or keeping that job. If her ignorance makes the patient almost die ---fire her immediately.

this happens often and among many many other things.

[damienscullytoo]

@04nursehellokitty it wasnt a mistake she did it on purpose,

[04nursehellokitty]

ok i am a nurse and that was just stupid of her to turn the vent off and how did she not know how to use a ambu bag? ohh my makes me scared

[keliciousify]

I'll say this, if I ever have a grandchild, I'll stay home to watcch him/her. Same applies to any member of my family who God forbid ends up needing care. No way wld I leave them wstrangers and if I HAD to, you can BET I'd be sure to have a camera installed in nursing home room.

[keliciousify]

what sickens me even moreso, is that the bitch didn't even react! no panic whatsoever and if that guy didn't signal for help, he'd be friggin dead. Tht bitch did that on purpose. Tht sucks-not only paralyzed fr neck down, now mentally retarded that bitch!

@chaleogne what did she even intend to do by turning it off? With 2-3 the punch in the face thing was a joke but I'm serious about the 2 years in jail. The way i see it if you see a machine hooked up to a person and you don't know what it does you shouldn't touch it.

[Chaleogne]

@t3hc0mm3nt3r you are worse than her. she did not intend to do that. but you, you really have an intention. you think like a criminal.

What the fuck! I thought only physicians and RTs can operate/adjust vent settings. I seriously hope this fuckin idiot lost her job and got thrown out of society because she clearly has no place in society and clearly is unable to contribute to the medical field, or just life period for that matter.
