How in heaven could such a thing happen? Oh boy - lots of heads be rolling out the door by morning. Monday - oh glory - a really bad day for many!
Quoting: Pooka Not nearly as bad as the woman receiving the injection. I keep telling anyone who will listen to stay far away from hospitals. A family member in the medical field told me that drug addiction among the medical staff is a HUGE problem with a lot of doctors and nurses impaired to deal with the hours and stress. I would assume drugs like that...not needed for routine use...would be kept outside of a hospital setting...unless Vanderbilt does executions for the state on the side... Quoting: Works4Me Not sure what department your family member works in. But i work in the medical field and disagree I've traveled to many states and worked in multiple hospitals across the country. The overwhelming majority of healthcare professionals DO care and take their careers very seriously. That said...certain departments in the hospital have different levels of professionalism. Like in any field...the higher up the career path you go, the more professional the person is. Quoting: Feyra Let me guess...you're a DETAIL MAN for Pharma? They told me its well known within the industry its a HUGE problem. A quick google search... Doctors and nurses account for one of the highest rates of addiction in the workforce. According to USA Today, “Across the country, more than 100,000 doctors, nurses, technicians and other health professionals struggle with abuse or addiction, mostly involving narcotics such as Oxycodone and Fentanyl.” [ link to www.addictioncenter.com (secure)] That's a pretty fucking huge number, if correct. The person told me about 25-30% are occasional users (stress/hours) but are functional...and 10-15% are full blown addicts that shouldn't be near a patient. Nurses pick up on it right away, but no one reports out of fear of career retribution Quoting: Works4Me I'm an actual healthcare provider. Not interested in getting into a bicker over numbers. One person's opinions does not make a fact. But surprised to see a GLP'er quick to believe some numbers from some organization. The same kinds of propaganda organizations that tell us climate change is real...whites are all nazis...and vets are all mentally ill. The "opioid crises" has fabrication too. But one would have to go beyond the govt-sponsored papers to learn that.
