Reply to comment by Falcon4242 in Former officer in Floyd killing pleads guilty to state charge by the-dasdardly-puppet

Superior, being pedantic derails the conversation and loses the point. A rookie is going to have a very challenging time changing the behavior of a senior officer and another officer.

A surgeon is not the "boss" of the nurses, scrubs and assistants that work under them either.

I'm speaking more about the other officers though, not the rookie. Pretty sure the lead guy was directly supervising the rookie or something. But the other 2 were the same rank, no?

This isn't a "surgeon overseeing nurses" issue, this is "multiple nurses with experience killing a patient, but saying that the one who worked longer is purely at fault". Yeah, maybe the nurse who is still being trained can argue that, but the other 2?

Oh, yeah, your right. He did say -especially- the rookie.

Yeah, I would imagine if a nurse, a nurses aid and a student smothered their patient to death, I would be disappointed if the RN and PCA weren't charged but also disappointed if the student were (assuming they were idling and not, like, being sadistic, or something)
