Patients charts are a thing of the past. All online now.
But you think that handing off a patient with Ebola might just be somehow mentioned between nursing and physicians.

Yeah. The nurse should have caught this right away as soon as he or she asked about Duncan about it. (Although he may have lied as he had before when leaving Liberia.)
That said, the person was probably not a nurse but just a barely literate desk clerk, which is normally what does “triage” in a big city emergency room. Half of them have been hired through welfare-to-work programs.
Sorry, it was human error.

I know I’m not a doctor, but I thought a doctor was supposed to read the whole chart?
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Blame game.
Someone explained the tort possibilities with this little ‘mistake’.

The excuses, in order:
(1) Mistakes were made.
(2) The software did it.
(3) The dog ate the paperwork.
(4) It's Bush's fault (or Israel's, or the Tea Party's)

Well, at least there’s nurses under the bus now, to help all the others that found themselves there.

The good news is, they are sending in the Obamacare Website team to fix the problem.

Always blame it on somebody/something else. What the h*ll is the doctor there for but to ask questions also and look at the symptoms.

“Republicans oppose immigration reform.”
You’ll hear this excuse at least once before election day.

What the h*ll is the doctor there for but to ask questions also and look at the symptoms. To find ways to pad the bill to pay for those who don't pay their bills.
