| Super Moderator | Strain of patient care cited by lawyer December 23, 2004: Strain of patient care cited by lawyer:"Caring for Alzheimer's patients can be difficult and frustrating. That fact should be considered in the case of a nursing home worker who allegedly abused several people in her care, the worker's lawyer says. But lawyers in the state attorney general's office have said there's no excuse for the actions of Bernadette Stackpole, 53, a former nursing assistant at the Franklin Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, who faces charges of physical and sexual abuse of four patients." http://www.boston.com/news/local/art...ted_by_lawyer/ Can you imagine if a jury bought into that excuse? Every Nursing Assistant and Nurse in the nation accused of abuse/neglect would jump on the bandwagon. . . . Sorry, it doesn't wash with me either. Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.4nursing.com |
