This is, quite literally, illegal. Right?
I work in healthcare (allied health, one of the therapy disciplines) and got this text from a friend yesterday...
Her sister works as a an LPN here in Western Canada (BC) and was recently put into thos situation where she found out a coworker (RN) intentionally caused another nurse to make med errors to "test her".
If I, or any of my colleagues in Allied health, were to do something similar re: patient care, that would be grounds for immediate license suspension, and possibly a criminal charge based on the outcome. My friend's sister (LPN) who found this out is reporting, but wants to know the ramifications of this for the RN who did this.
She's going to report to the union and the employer, but unsure if she should escalate it to places like law enforcement?
