It is heartening to see that there is still charity and good hearts out there still in these days where money grabbing corporations rule the day.

I am so grateful to have found a site to tell this story to, and to solicit options.
I recently took what was to be a 13 week assignment as night charge nurse for a level 2 hospital. the night staff had lots of work to do in addition to emergency cases.
One night, after I had been there about 4 weeks. we received notice that a gunshot wound would be coming up to us. He had a wound tohis right flak and abdomen, Also a through & through wound to right lower arm. He also brought with him 2 police officers as the patient was consdered th perpttatot..Two General surgeons repaired the abdomen andflank. When it became time to work on the arm, NO VASCULAR SURGEON WOULD COME IN TO DO IT. It seemthat because he wouldt get paidd for such a long surgery he would refuse it outright. I was prepping the arm when this new came to me (3:00 a.m.)but I was stunnedbecause th was lokind at a viable radia artery that had been severed but could have been fixed. The Generat surgeon chose to simply tie thr radial artery off, irrigate the site and then close it as if nothing unusual occured. Too a man or women; from anesthesia to O.R.T and RN I could not find any on in that room who was even a little. Comments ranged from 'too bad up to 'you cant expect a surgeom to waste 5-6 hours and not get paid"

In the morning I told the dayshift supervisor my story and asked for a incident or event report form. He actively tried to discourage me from writing it. I had not done clinical OR Nursing for quite some years. I hope someone of the readers see the as malpractice or neglect, even if the patient was in custody.

I told the OR Director that my integrety insisted I write it and I did

The very next week, I was terminated from my 13 week contract.

I am feeling guilty that I didn't do more to 'shame' the surgeons. What would have happened if I had called the Chief of Surgery at home)03:30)

I am in my 50's but I am having symptoms like post traumatic stress. This incident has assured that I will not seek work in a hospitl again, even thought they keep calling,

Can anybody hel[ to cope with these events.

it makes me glad to work in the uk, under the nhs at least everyone gets treatment esp. for life threatening and severe injuries. From what you say i agree it is pretty shocking but an indicator of the way things have gone. *I dont think that there is anything more you could have done* . I dont know anything specifically about the chief of surgery but I guess he would have been pretty unlikley to come in. Its a shame you have had such a bad experience and put a good nurse off from working in hospital....i would seek specific advice from occupational health (or its equivalent in the us) to see if you can access counselling to help you come to terms with things

I fully enjoyed this article. As I have spent many clinical hours with a "free clinic" ran by volunteer nursing staff and a grant paid public nurse, I've seen first hand the power of this charity within communities. My dream is to someday see some form of acceptable health care for all- not just for those that can afford it. I'm very young in my nursing path, and seeing other clinics such as ours at CARING INC and the St. Claire health mission (providing care for anyone without insurange) is extremely encouraging. Thank you for sharing!

I did my engineering senior project in a hospital emergency room. It's an experience I'll never forget, seeing people come in with their ailments, hardly looking like they can afford the impending bill. These people reaching out definitely deserve their place in Cambridge Who's Who and are great examples of what a little kindness and charity (which is the greatest of these, right?) can do.

Well uninsured is still a huge deal. Its all over capital hill, I am totally against a government option myself, and I don't think government needs to reform health care.

Its tough in today's economy. Lots of people don't have jobs, and therefore don't have ins. You can buy your own, but thats tough if you don't have a job. Of course there are always opportunities knocking so I guess we just have to go get them.

I think its awesome that people have been stepping up the discounts for the under or non insured. They need healthcare too. I think there is still a profit margin there and its high, so if the hospital takes a little less margin they can still make money on the volume.

It is good to see hospitals stepping up to help but it would be better to see it even more.

Nearly all of the growth in the uninsured is among people aged 18 to 64, most of whom are working. The average family premium for employer based cover is $11 480 (£5900; {euro}8800) a year.Employers have cut back on coverage and benefits in response to rising health-care costs and adverse economic circumstances.

There are programs to help the uninsured. Can't these people get insurance through some of them?

PTSD - Los Angeles you have some serious spelling and grammar errors there, and I can't even understand part of one of your thoughts cause you put a period smack in the middle of the sentence and moved on to a new thought.

However that is an awful story and it makes me sad cause it could be me sometime in the future.

I think there's a lot of hope that the current health insurance bill will resolve much of this.

I'm hopeful, but skeptical. When have you ever seen the government fix something the right way?

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often. Blu Ray Ripper|

It is nice to hear that there are some people stepping up and doing what is necessary to help those in need. Why can't there be more clinics like these? This is not an easy issue. If the government is paying for healthcare their are other issues. Such as people dying while waiting for treatment. These charity clinics are an awesome way to help a tough situation.

It is great to see people helping out. Above Ground Swimming Pools
