So glad there are nurses like you. I tried, as a nurse and advocate, to get hospital staff to take notice of signs of infection after my husband’s surgery. His neurosurgeon had expressed concerns about infection, yet after clear signs persisted, no one seemed to care. We eventually sought legal care as he now needs much more medication to deal with his condition. We are lucky he didn’t die, but were told that if he had, we could have made millions. Not very helpful. Situations like this need nurse advocates. People need to be aware of what you do – I mean if a spouse, who also a nurse can’t help, who can? I’m appalled at what health care has come to.
