Mike Malloy - Dallas Nurses Accuse Hospital of Sloppy Ebola Protocols

[hschulein]

Co-workers of a Dallas nurse who contracted Ebola from a sick patient say they worked for days without proper protective gear and that the hospital’s Ebola protocols and procedures were unclear and inadequate, leaving workers and hospital systems prone to contamination, according to a statement by the largest U.S. nurses’ union.

The statement, which was provided by National Nurses United on behalf of several registered nurses at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital, details hospital procedures after Thomas Eric Duncan arrived at the hospital. The nurses are not represented by the union, and the group declined to reveal the nurses’ identities.

1. Welcome to Rick Perry's Tex_US

[merrily]

2. I don't blame the nurses for anything--except maybe for their failure to join the union.

I hope they get it now. The hospital, the doctors, the press all hung them out to dry for no good reason. The only one who defended them right out of the box was the nurses' union.

Do the math, ladies and gentlemen.

3. I'd say 'Yep'

But thus calls for an 'ABSOLUTELY!' Dammit!

[merrily]

4. For a second, I thought you were going to argue with me about the union.

Glad I was mistaken.

5. Of Course

I was a nurse and I belonged to SEIU, service employees.

Not skilled or professional but 'service' like hotel maids. We work hard for the money. And all the shit rolls downhill.

[merrily]

6. I was SEIU for a time.
