Are you kidding me?
You don’t think they are currently incentivized to cover up mistakes that kill or injure someone?
And these aren’t just “mistakes”. Like forgot napkins in the take out bag. These mistakes END PEOPLES LIVES. These are supposed to be top professionals we are all supposed to trust with our lives.
God you frigging people.
My stepdaughter is a nurse. They all know to report immediately any time they make a medication error, and do so on those rare occasions when it does happen.
Now? They're literally telling each other not to do that any more. You can call them horrible, or unprofessional, or anything you wish. Doesn't change the bottom-line reality that the net effect of this will be far fewer self-reports of errors.
