In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Erica welcomes back Dr. Matthew Garvey DNP, MBA, RN to discuss several recent legal cases of nurses in the news. The conversation includes the impact of COVID-19 on nursing education and the alarming rise in patient safety incidents. Three recent cases of sexual assaults by healthcare professionals highlight systemic failures. An alarming case of a nurse crushing oral medications and administering IV is broken down. They discuss trust in the nursing profession declining due to negative media coverage. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted nursing education and the quality of training.
