Woman Dies After Nurse Refuses to Allow CPR
I have found two versions of the same story. Rather than sort out the facts as I have done in the past I simply post both versions and let readers sort it out. Both versions are fairly consistent. I will also post more video and audio if it becomes available. Quote:

I meant to put an embed to the longer uncut version of the call but it failed to function as expected. You can find it if you follow the links. Sorry bout that.

Rules or no rules, I don't think I could just stand there and watch someone die if there was anything I could do to try to help. Does this not fly in the face of the oaths medical professionals take?

Re: Woman Dies After Nurse Refuses to Allow CPR
If that was the nurse's family member would she have done the same thing? Was there a DNR on this woman? Is that why the woman's family members are not upset with the nursing home? Just really sad that our society has to resort to this kind of behavior to avoid lawsuits...IMO. ![]() |

Re: Woman Dies After Nurse Refuses to Allow CPR
The woman was 87 and the whole thing wouldn't have saved her anyway. CPR at her age would have been painful, if not futile and she'd have died a few days later but with the addition of a massive lawsuit on the home. Dont blame others when peoples greed has crippled the good Samaritan spirit. |

Re: Woman Dies After Nurse Refuses to Allow CPR
This is unbelievable. They must have had a DNR (do not resuscitate)order in place. I would have lost my job that day. Her ribs would have cracked with the CPR but I couldn't just stand there & watch her die ![]() |

Wrong again. There was no DNR. And the daughter is quite happy with the outcome. Makes you wonder why.
