Hi Guys and Dolls,
Big story is going down right now and a full investigation is being launched. An 87 year old woman staying at a Senior living facility desperately needed medical attention.
Lorraine Bayless collapsed in the dining room of the retirement home when the nurse called 911. Because there is a company policy that does not allow staff to administer CPR the woman died. 911 instructed the nurse to do CPR but she refused explaining she was not allowed to and watched this poor woman die.
The 911 dispatch responded to her refusal in the call:
"I understand if your boss is telling you, you can't do it," the dispatcher said. "But ... as a human being ... you know, is there anybody that's willing to help this lady and not let her die?"
"Not at this time," the nurse answered.
"It's not uncommon to have someone refuse to provide CPR if they physically can't do it, or they're so upset they just can't function," Kern County Fire Department Deputy Chief Michael Miller said. "What made this one unique was the way the conversation on the phone went. It was just very frustrating to anyone listening to it, like, why wasn't anyone helping this poor woman, since CPR today is much simpler than it was in the past?"
Forget policies that are absolutely ludicrous especially when you are a nurse, but what about being humane? There are plenty of us that know CPR that are not in the medical field that would assist.
If you worked for a company that had this policy would you let a person die?
