This week, Tina is joined once again by Dan Weberg, a registered nurse and head of clinical innovation with Trusted Health. Together they tell the tragic story of Jan Sochalski, a nurse who was accused of taking matters into her own hands when her husband ended up in a comatose state after complications from back surgery. The good nurse story is about home health nurse Gwendolyn Theus, who sacrificed her own life to save her patient. They close the show with our new satire news segment "Not Necessarily Nursing News". This week's article is entitled "Research Evidence Links Patient Outcomes to Whiteboards."
