Okay so for context this happened a while ago, and she wasn’t allowed to tell anyone because of the legal aspect. but now that the situation is over and done with she has been able to speak out. we all saw the news articles. we just didn’t know she was the one who did it. until today.

now she’s not a cold blooded murder she didn’t stab someone to death or something.. but as a healthcare professional myself this is almost worse to me!

anyways she’s a registered nurse, we all went to school together we all had the same training, she KNEW BETTER. after school we all chose different hospitals, and doctors offices, except her. she chose to go to a nearby prison. she always talked about how much she loved it, the hours were good, she got paid good, she didn’t have to fake nice because they were prisoners yada yada yada. whatever. that already didn’t sit right with me but she never was a huge people person so that made sense.

she had been at this prison for a year or two maybe, never had issues never got in trouble nothing! until this dreadful day. there was a pregnant inmate who kept telling her she was in labor and she needed help and to please do something and she sent her back to her cell multiple times and said the previous shift nurse told her that she was fine and in fact not in labor and she wasn’t wasting her time doing a full work up just so the women could get out of her cell. she said she would check on her in a few hours, and see how she was feeling at least. but never did. this women sat in her cell screaming all night and delivered her own baby, in a cold, dirty, prison cell. i won’t go into specifics but mom and baby both died. there was a whole malpractice trial, etc etc. she was found not guilty because the prison wanted to keep it under wraps and didn’t want anyone to know two of their nurses FAILED this women and her baby. the only terms to them saying she was not guilty was that she could no longer work there. there’s nothing on her record, she kept her license, and was able to move to OUR hospital with no issues.

i’m so upset with this situation i busted my ass to get a job here. I worked so hard for years at a job i hated and i busted my ass in school to be top of our class to be able to get hired here and she kills someone and just walks on with a wonderful letter of recommendation from the warden. i don’t want to work with her, i don’t want to be her friend, i don’t wanna even be in the same room as her! everyone says i’m overreacting but we made an oath to DO NO HARM. all she had to do was check this woman! that’s alll!!!! but instead she allowed an innocent woman’s and child to lose their lives on her watch. so glow community.. am i wrong for not wanting to be her friend?
