Completely and totally unconscionable!!

Why have medical personal (it was a staff nurse that followed the letter of the facility law to the point of death) if they are not gong to be allowed to actually preform medical procedures in the event of an emergency. We are talking CPR!! Not open heart surgery!!

One must wonder just how much blame can be assigned to lawyers and fear of tort cases causing such an insane policy. Billy Shakespeare got it right ... "first, we kill all the lawyers"
