EP 98: Nursing Huddle News Update: Flesh-Eating Vulva Virus, Nurse Pepper Sprays Patient & More
Huddle News Update:
In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica discuss current nursing news stories, including a shocking incident where a nurse pepper sprayed an elderly patient, a radiologist's controversial decision to treat his injured cat at the hospital, and the tragic suicide of a nurse who faced retaliation for reporting abuse. The conversation highlights the use of dark humor as a common coping mechanism among healthcare workers and the ethical dilemmas faced by nurses. The hosts discuss the importance of education in nursing with the spread of recent misinformation regarding necrotizing fasciitis of the vulva, a rare but aggressive infection. The Huddle News also includes a disturbing case of child abuse by a nurse and the use of Meta Smart Glasses in healthcare settings.
