I work in HC. Sounds like this was a cluster.
The family shared that as she “slipped into acute respiratory failure and Grace’s sister begged for help, instead of starting CPR immediately, the nurses refused,” since Grace’s doctor had unilaterally labeled her as a “Do Not Resuscitate” (DNR), despite lack of written consent from her family.
A cluster indeed. Really sad for the patient and her family. I have a special place in my heart for Downs people, worked at a place in LA that trained them to do their best in the world. The kids were so sweet. Special Olympics is one of the few charities I support.
Family will probably win their suit, but that won’t replace young Grace. May she Rest in Peace.
Indeed
I agree. This is a CF and there is a lot of missing detail. I will try to look up the lawsuit complaint.
