  • Summary

  • This week on Scrubs & Subpoenas, we dive into the largest malpractice case ever filed against a nurse practitioner. This story begins with a young family NP working alone in a rural, four bed emergency room, caring for a patient rushed in after a syncopal event and a subsequent head injury sustained in the ER. Lack of resources and ineffective protocol blocked proper care for this patient, leading to a catastrophic pulmonary embolism. We dive into the incongruence of court protections for NPs vs. MDs, and the detrimental implications of restrictive practice scopes. Explore the connections between healthcare deserts and poor patient outcomes, and where NPs fit into this complex puzzle.
