Regarding the issue of tracking medication in hospitals, I worked at a VA hospital as a ward clerk for six months in 1998-99. At the time, while virtually everything in the private health care industry was being done through computer-based electronic records, literally every single thing that we did at the VA was still on paper records. We were, at the time, just starting to change over to ordering lab tests on the computer, but still had to use paper lab slips at the same time–and that was probably the most advanced place we were, technologically, in recordkeeping. I didn't have any figures on it, but I wouldn't doubt that a 1-2% discrepancy in tracking doses of medication administered would have been normal at the time, just from forms being lost or damaged/destroyed, much less people forgetting to file it in the heat of the moment.
That said, 88 out of 135 doses unaccounted for? That's a whole order of magnitude more than anything I'd have expected at the time…
I'll tell ya as a Vet, I 100% believe a VA doctor said "dead, DEAD" 😂
Why the title change? Wasn't this serial killer american?
Why is this the UK's angle of death? It happened in Massachusetts
I'm just confused to why this says it's a UK serial killer… didn't this happen in the US? He literally talks about Massachusetts at one point. Lol
Listening to this while on shift at the hospital but dont worry people, this is Pathology and the morgue Cant do much harm here even if I wanted to 🤣 But seriously, as a hospital worker and also a patient sometimes, I need to say that they do check peoples name and social security nr/CPR nr before just feeding anyone anything and the medicin room is of limits to anyone exept nurses. Medication can go missing, but no one just gets to go unnoticed as it has to be there when needed and if its not, it will be noticed, we dont have that much just laying around so packages going missing will be found out.
At least save people on your last year so people think it not you
I know these words, Simon, you small brain. One of them was the subtitle to an an anime, and the other one is obvious from context and conjugation.
I have had that nickname myself, it doesn't always take much. For me, 3 patients. Two, one right after another while I was doing clinical training, then another shortly after when I was coming to pick up another patient, he died right before we got the paperwork to take him to a nursing home. None were even close to my fault, and I hadn't touched any until after they coded. But the nickname came because they saw 3 with me in a short period.
As for security, they always respond to medical emergencies in the hospital with us as well. They can be emotionally charged when a family member is present, or just serve as an extra hand. They almost never actually provide care.
watched this as a Maths teacher and I'm 100% going to use this as an example of conditional probability going forward.
As a Masshole (Massachusetten), Chris' love of Massachusetts is rather misplaced
Fall River is where Lizzie Borden was from.
Oh, okay he covers that later on. 🤦♀️
Lmao they can afford to cover the veterans they just don’t want to
Why is this called the UK's other Angel of death? Unless I'm missing something, she was an American who committed her crimes in America.
As an RN, I have flushed and drawn blood from IV lines thousands of times. It makes perfect sense.
Regarding a Grand Jury; In South Carolina, If the jury does not find vote to indict the suspect in the charges presented, the Prosecuting Attorney (called the Solicitor-for some reason) can direct indict the defendant. Thereby overruling the grand jury. The same thing can happen if the case does not go forward from a preliminary hearing.
I have lived in Massachusetts nearly all my life and I live fairly close to Northampton and I have never heard of this case. Thank you for bringing it to my attention and the world's. ~Kevin
They bring in the cop for extra muscle with the CPR compressions, especially with patients who are larger from muscle or otherwise.
Removing death penalty for her children's sake was very kind and humane of the jury. Especially given the later diagnoses as well.
Did I miss why this is listed as the UK's angel of death?
Speaking of Czechian customs and paperwork in Czech, under EU regulations, you can insist on communicating with any EU member state's public services in any EU member state's official language. Even after Brexit, English is still an official EU language, because it's an official language of Malta.
Epinephrine and adrenaline are just different names of the same hormone. Historically, it happened to be discovered and researched at roughly the same time throughout the world, so it got named multiple times, by different people, and in the early 20th century, it was mostly called 'adrenaline', constructed from the Latin root for _kidney_, by European scientists, and 'epinephrine', constructed from the Greek words for _above the kidney_, where the primary gland producing it is located, by the North American ones. But the scientific world has been globalising even faster than the consumer world, and so by the middle of the 20th century, both words had become universally recognised, although some writers would have a personal preference for one or the other, and the historic difference can still be observed in some scientific subfields.
RAF Lakenheath is a British base, the USAF use it since the cold war.
As an RN, I can attest to the fact that it's not uncommon for people to scream that you're killing them when you're just trying to do stuff to help them, like starting an IV, turning paralyzed people in bed, cleaning up their wounds, cleaning up their poop, etc. People are sick and frustrated and they take it out on us (nurses and techs; they're usually nice to the doctors). So I wouldn't have been at all shocked to hear someone scream that at a nurse.
The title says “the UK’s (other) angel of death,” but this episode takes palace in the US?
