Host of Dr. Nick: The Incrementalist – #TheIncrementalist

This months episode of “News you can Use” on Healthcare NOW Radio features news from the month of March 2022.

As I did last month I am talking to Craig Joseph, MD (@CraigJoseph) Chief Medical Officer at Nordic Consulting Partners. We review the recent in person events we both attended in Florida this past month, both coming away with a positive view of the experience and invigorated to be back in person and interacting with our colleagues, friends and healthcare teams.

Criminalizing Medical Malpractice

The majority of our time was spent discussing the recent news of the RaDonda Vaught, a former nurse criminally prosecuted for a fatal drug error in 2017 who was convicted of gross neglect of an impaired adult and negligent homicide. She now faces yeast in prison based on the current sentencing guidelines.

As Dr. Jayne detailed in her blog:

The only thing being discussed in the virtual physician lounge this weekend was the trial of Tennessee nurse RaDonda Vaught, who was found guilty of criminally negligent homicide following a medication error.

Listen in to hear a detailed breakdown of the mistake made on the floor by this nurse that centered on entering 2 letters to find the drug she needed, the reason why the drug she wanted did not even show up in the list (hint – drugs have 2 names – Tylenol or paracetamol and acetaminophen for example). And hear the background to why this was even possible and happened and what might contribute to this occurring again and why this action could cause more errors to be made.

You can read more about the series here and the concept of keeping up with innovating in healthcare. Please send me your suggestions on topics you’d like to see covered. You can reach out direct via the contact form on my website, send me a message on LinkedIn or on my Facebook page (DrNickvT), or on Twitter tagging me (@DrNic1) and #TheIncrementalist or you can click this link to generate a ready-made tweet to fill in.
