Posted September 8, 2017 Although it is wrong and indeed to human sensibility, easy to consider as un-sensitive and crass..... I can't say I blame the five nurses at DG who unzipped and then viewed the over-sized pecker of a deceased man. We all know this is unethical. But wouldn't"t this also violate the HIPPA oath that all medical personnel take? Still, would I look? .. .... Yes. I would.🍀 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 8, 2017 Many occupations have a code of ethics. If you violate them, you are responsible for the punishment that follows. Some call it karma. Can it be difficult to resist temptation? Oh yes! Just ask anyone (like me) who slept with a co-worker! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 8, 2017 I think they'd only be violating HIPPA if they were discussing the patient's personal information. I hope this scenario is in next year's employee handbook! LMAO 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 8, 2017 I don't believe this is a HIPAA violation, unless they were discussing his name, chart, etc. That being said, this was ABSOLUTELY unethical, and I imagine the CO State Board of Nursing will have something to say about their licenses. I know it's funny think about how you may or may not do this, and there is definitely plenty of gallows humor in medicine (especially the OR and ED). IMO they should have a brief suspension of their license. But the care of a patient, even including after they have died, is really kind of sacred. This is really disappointing to hear, and I absolutely do not condone it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 8, 2017 True story long before HIPAA was a thing my mother worked in a medical records office. It was where all patient charts and information was maintained and stored. They used to assemble the most ridiculous things they found in charts and read them out loud at their Christmas party. It would get them all fired these days but it's hard to work in that industry and not read the crazy in front of you. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since all medical records are electronic now it tracks everyone that looks at the info. When I worked at a hospital there were a handful of people fired for looking at an ex president's chart. We had some fairly famous patients and someone was always getting in trouble. Allen Iverson had a baby at the hospital that I worked at (unrelated to spilling medical info) and when he came to pick up his wife and child there was a little fight among the valet as to who was gonna park his Bentley. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 8, 2017 If only this were the biggest issue facing the world. It is human nature to have curiosity (morbid or not) about certain things. It is hardly shocking that a group of nurses might wish to see and discuss an unusually large male member. If there is any job in normal life (war zones, etc excluded) that is more challenging, demanding and draining than escorting, my vote would go to nursing. Especially at a hospital and either emergency or critical care duties. In the midst of that job a group of ladies show their humanity, albeit it in a technically illegal fashion. Who did they hurt? If any living guy was told a group of nurses would like to look and marvel at the enormity of his cock, would he be intimidated, frightened, traumatized, wronged? Or rock hard, ready for action and floating on cloud nine.? So dead, it is a big deal? I say when I need treatment for a serious medical issue give me nurses that still have their humanity intact and God bless the thousands of wonderful women and men that do this job every day. If anyone should be reprimanded and/or fired it is the nosy, eavesdropping snitch that clearly is more concerned with spite, revenge, and slavery to rules than his/her humanity. As usual, one guys opinion and frequently it seems at variance with prevailing wisdom Shrug. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't recall any article mentioning that the appendage was large. Perhaps they were looking at one unusually small.

Yes, but if it was one nurse saying to another "hey, go check out that dude's schlong!" it's most likely not technically a HIPAA violation. I know quite a bit about this, but I could be wrong. But honestly.... to me it's not really germane to this issue. It was WRONG any way you look it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From the Post article: A tip to Denver7 said the nurses disciplined admired the size of the deceased patient’s genitals and at one point opened a body bag to view parts of the body. A hospital spokesman confirmed details of the incident. A different nurse heard one of the disciplined nurses make a comment in May that the nurse felt was inappropriate and reported it to hospital staff, Denver Health Medical Center spokesman Josh Rasmussen said. “Multiple staff members viewed the victim while he was incapacitated, including after he was deceased,” a Denver Police report says. “The complainant, Risk Management for Denver Health, made a mandatory report.” "Admired the size of the deceased patient's genitals" So you are saying they could have been gathering to admire how cute and small? Even if so, that is an irrelevancy and my (attempted) point remains precisely the same. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 11, 2017 If the after life is to be believed... Then this man's soul can be elated by the fact that his body's genitalia caused this reaction amongst those who witnessed it. It sounds like he had one that was of admirable quality. I 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
