This is an area where zero tolerance should be the rule. Whoever made the mistake on the paperwork should never be allowed near a medical facility again. And the doctor, same thing.

Yep - protocol says they don't go in unless they have triple verified the proper area/procedure - and marked it.

Some will say it's OK because the victim was a Federal inmate while ignoring the real import of such stories.

I seem to remember a story years ago about where the PATIENT is given a magic marker and draws and writes on his own abdomen, or arm, or leg, “Remove THIS one.”
