He was just casually returning to his conversation because the youth life was not of any importance to him. Drs should try to save their patients as best as possible
wouldn't be surprised if there was a little bit of racism thrown in there as well. like gee, i wonder WHY he wasn't willing to do everything possible to save that kid's life...
@@dietotakuyet a black man is in charge I don't think it's racism it's more like oh its just another patient oh well. I visit the hospital almost weekly and this is typical behavior. Because nurs is not a dr they don't value their input
4:30 She helped future victims. Because the victim’s mom knows the full story behind what killed her son, she’ll sue the hospital, and it will decrease the chance of such malpractice happening again.
But lower that hospitals budget thus taking away vital resources needed to keep other patients alive.
@@RaptorFromWeegeethey’ll be fine, next time hire people who actually want to HELP people stay alive instead of waiting and ect killing them. Suing them is better and I’m glad
@@daishamaxwell461 No they won't. Sometime, talk to someone whos handling bookkeeping or finance for a major hospital
And for that, the nurse most likely will be blackballed and have a difficult time finding another job with her whole career and life uprooted. But she still did the right thing. Sometimes sacrifices are made for right. A pitty really. That situation never even had to happen. And those that should be held accountable usually are not.
@@RaptorFromWeegee Malpractice insurance / Liability Insurance. They' [the hospital] would be fine.
I've been in healthcare for 34 years. Veronica was right. I'd have done the SAME thing and I'd have quit.
The Doctor was young, cocky, dismissive, lacking in experience and wrong but nobody cares about the nurses. It's always the Doctors.
This is a problem with many young doctors and senior nurses that was highlighted in this episode. This is very common in the healthcare sector.
It was clearly shown in the beginning when he administered 360 Joules and did not advise clearance before discharging the defibrillator.
You always take any advice when it comes to saving a life and weigh the pros and cons with senior colleagues. You never dismiss what could potentially be a life saver.
Their rash actions are more in line with battle docs during war-time. Patience is apparently a sin to human race?
Fire the doctor, reprimand the nurse. The only reason they want to fire Veronica is because of $$$.
There is a hospital near where i live thats been in the news recently. They have been kicking patients out on the street a block or two away from the hospital while theyre still in the hospital gowns because theyre either too poor or they dont have enough insurance.
Whitaker should've gotten in trouble. Veronica should have talked to him in private but she only acted the way she did because Whitaker was negligent
Exactly
the mother in situation is helped, if the doctor was neglient she desrves money in response to the kids death, thats whose helped, also patients afterwards will be helped because now when ppl die under that doctors eyes it wont just be a accident questions will be asked like they should be always.
I hate that backroom "Do it quietly" BS, I want EVERYONE to know when someone has just caused the death or harm of another! I hate everything being quietly swept under the rug and no one being held accountable because no one knows. That mother deserved to know that the "doctor" was flippant about her DEAD sons medical care because Meh.
lmfao............you do realize they are ACTORS and this isn't real? I swear, you take TV Shows so seriously.
So many times patients die because ( which apparently this Dr undoubtedly has a few)drs refuse to do all they can to help them for various personal well known reasons. When drs, nurses, or police officers, speak out against this kind of abusive illegal treatment they carry the soul burden of not being a TEAM PLAYER and going against the GRAIN. Just a senseless loss of lives.
I have a PA but work as a field medic because I refused to take the oaths required to work in a hospital or deal with the politics that are more important to most emergency room management.
I am the Medical Sergeant for a team that specializes in rough terrain/extreme climate Search and Rescue/Recovery, Disaster Response, mutual aid for wildland fire, etc.
I'm the highest ranking medic in 3 districts so in the field, it's my call, if one of my medics has a gut feeling or instinct about something or does something unusual or goes off protocol so long as they can give me reasoning I will back them on it. My region has the best survival numbers/stats in the state. We've had other supervisors come and ask what they can do differently but when I tell them they are too afraid. This job is to save lives and do your best, sometimes you have to take a risk.
Why isn’t that guy getting in trouble ?
Ok yes I get that the outburst was not professional in front of patients but why is she the blame for his wrongdoing.
I don't care about professional, I care about the lives of others.
In the meeting they weren't addressing whether the kid could've been saved or not they were addressing that she just put the hospital up for being sued.
Scapegoat
In heaven: What did you die of?
Doctors
Okay but what took you to the doctor's?
a headshot
Then how did the doctor's kill you?
They forgot to say clear.
Forgetting to say ‘clear’ is not what killed this kid.
Forgetting to say ‘clear’ is what got the other guy zapped!
@@dmf1301no it was a CLOT she suggested a blood thinner saying it was often used in the front lines indicating she was apparently accustomed to making quick decisions and being observant in various unlikely situations the dr flat out refused her suggestions. When one dose of a blood thinner could have saved a child’s life.
So he would rather she cover up the negligence of a colleague to save the hospital money? You know what’s a waste of money wasting resources on patients just to let them die. The American healthcare system is straight trash.
Veronica was right on all accounts but the way she went about it was all wrong. She should have reported it to her superiors or pulled him aside somewhere where patients weren’t allowed. Now not only did the mother lose her son, but now she knows that he died needlessly because of a Doctors stupid mistake and ego. Don’t get me wrong Whitaker should still be fired, or suspended at the very least. But Veronica still can’t be making outbursts like that in a hospital.
The sad truth is that nurses often know more than Doctors. The smart ones listen, the arrogant dismiss & cause harm & even death.
Typical, the nurse is the one that gets blamed.

“Actually, I was the one who shot him.” ☝🏻
Never heard of this show so idk who anyone is but I’m sorry, WHAT KIND OF CHEST COMPRESSIONS ARE THOSE!!!!!! @1:00? That is not how you do chest compressions
An embolism is when an embolus stops blood flow by acting as a blockage. In this case, the embolus is the bullet.
In this case its actually not the bullet. He was shot in the hip which is a large bone. Large bone fractures can lead to fat from the broken bone to enter the blood stream. The rash is one of the symptoms of fat embolism. The fat embolus most likely traveled to his lung causing him to go into respiratory distress. Towards the end the patient was intubated which he is brain dead due to hypoxia.
@@charlesyee7580they literally said he was brain dead from oxygen deprivation
Thank you, Dr House.
@@anthea6669 hypoxia is oxygen deprivation. Look it up.
@@charlesyee7580 all correct except the title says he was shot in the head?
Do you know you watch too many medical shows when you’re seeing clear and the doctor doesn’t say it 😂😂😂😂
"You forgot to say clear."🤣🤣🤣
3:25 I hate those words.. I've heard it so many times...
Especially when it's a lie, like this. The more they could have done, is listened.
@@ThePickledsoul yes.. I'm severely ill most of it because they don't listen 🥹
Poor guy he died so young.
Looks like Dawn became a nurse! only Buffy fans would understand😂
Thought I recognized her!
@@becky2235 yeah I was like DAWN! When I saw her. I wasn’t expecting her at all! Lol
who's dawn? all i see is jenny, one half of the worst twins ever (only eurotrip fans would understand)
@@dietotakufrom Buffy the Vampire slayer 😁
I see her as Georgina from gossip girl lol
Welcome to real world nursing.
Holy crap. Male doc was in Point Break. Part of Swayze's masked president entourage.
The doctor wasn't wrong. A chest rash is not dispositive of a PE, and starting heparin on a cranial GSW pt is really really risky
fat embolism is not the same as a PE. PE is a blood clot and heparin would absolutely be prescribed if there was a chance of a clot traveling to the lungs. fat embolisms are trickier to diagnose and treat and are often much more immediately fatal.
Don't you usually do heparin whenever a patient is going to be bedridden for an extended period of time? I mean I guess the GSW could counterindicate it, but I've never known someone who was hospitalized and *didn't* get heparin or warfarin.
@@CLKagmi23that's why I was on it. I was bedridden for three months due to sepsis and stage 4 bedsore
What show is this? What season and episode is this called? 😮
Mercy that's the show name
Wait… I thought he was shot in the hip.
So his ego wouldn't let him listen to her?
When your a doctor your supposed to try everything you can not neglect cause you don’t think something is happening that might be
Thats fr messed u[p how do u forget to say the one things your're supposed to say?
Shot in the HIP! Where tf did head come from?!?
Sydnee grove hospital Veronica ❤
I feel bad for the mom
So that what happened to Dawn after she and Buffy left Sunnydale.
Which Episode?
So, the problem is the mom finding out about the malpractice, not the malpractice itself. Got it.
Nurse tryna flirt with the kid💀
Where can I watch the full episodes?
This is one of the reasons why thousands of people are afraid to go to a hospital or a doctor..

RIP and my condolences
Could someone kindly explain if she got fired and what happened to the other doctor
Probably nothing. I have a PA but work as a field medic because I refused to take the oaths required to work in a hospital or deal with the politics that are more important to most emergency room management.
I am the Medical Sergeant for a team that specializes in rough terrain/extreme climate Search and Rescue/Recovery, Disaster Response, mutual aid for wildland fire, etc.

@@ladyweasellou3367 its wayyyy more common than you think
@@ladyweasellou3367 The politics are a direct result of this idea that you can just sue a doctor for making a mistake. Negligence? I understand that. Malpractice? I understand that too. But making an honest mistake in an attempt to save someone's life? There are plenty of scenarios where there are only bad decisions, all carry risk, but one could save the patients life. Doctors are afraid to try those treatments now because of this culture of suing for everything.
@@lukewoodside9420 deliberately neglecting the patient because you don't see any way to profit off of him is malpractice. The healthcare system is money-driven, not care-driven.
@@nevaehhamilton3493 Those are a lot of leaps in logic. None of which is even remotely close to addressing what the above poster is stating.
Is tbis an actual tv show?
I’m so glad this is just acting 😌 otherwise this would be very tragic…
What show is this I wanna watch it
All parents and adults and kids every human wants a nurse like her and doctors like her that actually care and don’t care about maintaining professionalism esp when it’s at the stake of someone’s life
At the first when the 15-year-old was coding how come they did not have him on vitals or at least something so they know what his vitals are🤨👀
Almost seems like that young female doctor pushing his bed has an attraction to the kid
Oh boy
Whats malpractice
Deliberate bad medicine. The nurse suggested a fat embolism might be happening and the doctor ignored it. Therefore Malpractice
It basically just means the doctor was negligent or made a careless mistake which in turn causes the patient to either be injured or die.
@@mckenzieevans8511 ok ty
Holy crap. Blonde Dr is from orange is the new black
Hello
All I can see is Piper Chapman and Georgina Sparks 😅
I would've said, "Fire me. Ill help her sue."
2:23 She is absolutely gorgeous
Double draw number
0:16 who is she? She's gorgeous
😮😮
I’d like to play devils advocate here and say the nurse is in the wrong. It’s incredibly unprofessional to throw things at people and yell at them and n the middle of hospital at the very least. If you can’t control your emotions, you should learn how or get a new job. Speak privately and not make a scene. Also, throwing things at people is assault. The doctor is a jerk for brushing off the fact that the kid died, BUT giving a blood thinner to a gunshot victim is incredibly dangerous and can make them bleed out let alone that fact the bullet is in his head. On top of that they said a fat embolism, not a regular embolism. Blood thinners don’t work on fat embolisms and it’s not protocol to give them in those cases. Hindsight is 20/20 but they should’ve been monitoring him with heparin at the ready just in case as a Hail Mary but if he died anyway then the mother might have more evidence of malpractice if it’s a fat embolism and the heparin made him bleed out.
Why does everyone always get triggered whenever a woman gets in trouble on A TV show
Fem-nazis
Fragility.
thats not why lol. They were triggered cause she was in the right.
@@EpicFableBean nah they were both wrong
I think the writers intended to leave some ambiguity about both the medical culpability, and the moral accountability.
Fun fact: Notice how in order for them to have something be the woman's fault, they have to make her a blond white woman.
First!
Big deal … not 🙄
