I would recommend to anyone, nurse or doctor, that could be charged criminally if anything did not turn out perfect for every possible scenario, to immediately quit and join some other profession.

Your immaturity is showing. What this post and a large number of the responses show is that there are competent folks and incompetent folks. The failure in our society is not so much that we mistreat competent professionals - we do that to - but rather that, in the name of fairness and due process - we can never deal with the fundamentally incompetent folks who have no business being in, for instance, an emergency room.

There is a reason that there has been a line between civil and criminal in these matters. Government always abuse any power given to it and if you think that when government is allowed to criminally prosecute health care workers that it will be limited to only the incompentent ones you are incredibly naive. Previous generations understood this but ours apparently does not. Hospitals, for example, will encourage this type of prosecution on a regular basis just to cover themselves. We cannot even begin to fathom the unintended consequences of crossing that line.
