In a harrowing episode within the corridors of healthcare, a nurse practitioner's routine day turned nightmarish when an agitated patient, amidst a struggle with security, violently assaulted her. The aftermath saw her transition from caregiver to patient, necessitating a grueling journey of physical and emotional rehabilitation.
The plot thickens when the hospital, in a move to protect its image, offers to cover all her expenses in exchange for her silence. They present her with a non-disclosure agreement, bluntly stating this incident is "bad for business." This story is not just about recovery but also highlights the ethical dilemma faced by healthcare professionals, caught between patient care and the commercial interests of their institutions.
Harry Severance is an emergency physician.
