Please help a fellow nurse, my wife, who would appreciate the support of her colleagues:
A "must read," this is the gripping story of a nurse's struggle to survive her own stay at one of the country's top hospitals. The real life experience of a patient who underwent treatment for a heart condition, it describes how the procedure became a nightmare, and offers a compelling behind-the-scenes look at corporate influences on America's health care system.The stunning statements by research doctors reveals frighteningly casual attitudes toward patient safety and the corrupting influence of big money in modern medicine.
"I can see it as if it were happening right now, right in front of me. Gagging on the ventilator tube lodged in her throat, choking and gagging, wrists tied to the bed rails and she pulling against them, pulling herself up from the bed, heaving forward, straining, neck muscles taught, split breastbone scraping, the pressure popping her eyes open, red veined and raw, hot tears, and the fierce frantic struggle for air, for breath, for life itself."
