- Cops arrest nurse because she refused to draw blood from an unconscious patient
There's probably more to this story.
Also if a doctor ordered a serum ethanol panel on an unconscious patient, the nurse either must do it or find a nurse who will. Ethanol poisoning is potentially lethal. Refusing to draw labs on a sick patient is really bad.

Doctors can. We don't know if a doctor ordered it because we aren't given enough information. doctors can because they are supposed to save lives. 1) it doesn't seem like a blood draw was a necessary medical procedure in these circumstances, 2) even if the nurse did take the sample the cops wouldn't be entitled to it. The hospital would have a duty to protect their patient's info. Cops need a warrant to get blood. |

Why wont people just do what the cops say without trying making a fuss? They have a gun and a badge, that's not a fight you'r'e gonna win. well she may have been fired for violating hospital policy. She had what sounded like a supervisor or in house counsel for the hospital on the phone telling her not to do it. |

Coffeebeanz posted...Doctors can. We don't know if a doctor ordered it because we aren't given enough information. Any unconscious patient will have labs drawn if they're in the hospital. Not ordering a serum ethanol level would actually be malpractice. I can't imagine a scenario where the cops drop off an unconscious inebriated person to the ER and a serum drug screen / ethanol level isn't ordered. So unless the cops literally dragged this dude to a random nurse, bypassing the ER, and demanded a blood draw, there MUST be more to the story. That said, they are certainly under no obligation to (and in fact, legally should not) share that information with the police.

Are we talking about drawing blood or sharing information with law enforcement? Because she is being arrested for refusing to draw blood. In a hospital ER. As in, a chemically intoxicated unconscious patient is not having labs drawn because a nurse doesn't want to. That only goes with your argument if the cops found a way to literally bypass a doctor and demand the lab straight from a random nurse, which is insane. No, the hospital does not have to share information with law enforcement. Yes, the nurse is obligated to draw labs if a doctor orders it. The context of this scenario is everything.

"Unconcious" is a completely irrelevant details
The actual punchline is that a cop can't order labs and, in a hospital, doesnt have authority over medical professionals.

"Unconcious" is a completely irrelevant details And you're assuming that the cops bypassed the ER, got to the actual medical area (there's PHI bins everywhere), bypassed all the doctors and demanded a random nurse to draw labs on a patient. If that's what actually happened, then you have an argument. I suspect the nurse got an order to draw labs from a physician and refused to do so based on misinterpreting the hospital's policy on drawing ethanol levels on patients who are arrested but not being admitted for treatment.

Are we talking about drawing blood or sharing information with law enforcement? Did you even watch the video? The cop tells her to draw his blood. She says she can't because of hospital regs and he needs to obtain a warrant. He then arrests her for hindering prosecution. It's not about willingness to draw blood. What would happen if she caved in and ended up giving it to the cop? She would get fired. She and the Hospital will be sued by the patent for malpractice She most likely have her nursing license revoked, basically blacklisting her from any aand all nursing jobs. ect ect |

It's not "arguing to argue". They are clearly past the waiting room in the ER. The patient is required to have an attending physician by this point. You're assuming that the cops are bypassing everyone and demanding labs to be drawn. We don't have enough information to say that. You're jumping to conclusions. The end result is this: If a physician ordered the labs for any legitimate medical reason: The nurse is in the wrong. If no labs were ordered and the cops are just demanding an ethanol screen: The cops are in the wrong. Either way, she wasn't arrested for failing to share the results of a lab (which she would have every right to do), she was being arrested for refusing to DRAW a lab. The question is who asked her to draw it - the cops or a physician.

Look, I work in an ER every day. If you bring an unconscious patient to the ER, that patient cannot leave the hospital until they're stabilized and conscious. You're telling me they drove an unconscious patient to some random hospital, bypassed the waiting room, dragged him up to a random nurse and demanded a serum ethanol level, all while the hospital apparently has no intention of admitting or treating a patient they are required by law to treat? That's completely insane. Holy s*** how do you not understand this? The patient is clearly and obviously already admitted to the hospital - by virtue of being unconscious and intoxicated, if nothing else. If he's admitted to the hospital, you can bet your ass an ER doc ordered routine labs. So yes, some context WOULD be nice.

So if every nurse denied taking blood at that hospital would they arrest all of them?

If most of the general scenario was caught on camera, cop was in the wrong.
Nurse WAS obeying the laws; hospital laws. She was following medical care policy. Which trump pissy ass police officer's in more typical situations. Doesn't matter if the person unconscious is a potential criminal. It's illegal to just hand over records and blood samples merely on an officer's say-so. Medical staff can lose their license and be charged with crimes just for doing that. This wasn't a case of nurse vs police rebellion. She was literally following established medical guidelines, the law. The cop, however, broke a couple of them himself.... And worse, he acted like he didn't know about the laws protecting medical information (a law officer's responsibility, they're SUPPOSED TO be at least familiar with that before they go charging in with handcuffs). He could have come back later with a warrant, etc. Instead he decided to be a power-jerking a****** and strong arm a staff member who was just a representative. It's pathetic. Clean-cut wrongful arrest.
Bite me like one of your French rolls.

But the title of the topic is "refused to draw blood", which raises the question of who asked her to do it, and why.

He was also unconscious, in a motor vehicle accident, and in a hospital. There's no f***ing way the hospital is going to let him go back with the cops after the "blood draw", which means by this point he's been admitted and a trauma physician has already ordered routine labs and imaging. The nurse cannot refuse to do those. And obviously the cops can't ask the nurse for the RESULTS of those labs, but you know what? Nurses can't give results of labs to ANYONE, even patients. And the physician has every right to tell the cops they cannot see any of the patient's PHI.
It doesn't matter why the cops brought him - he's under the hospital's care now. If a nurse isn't following orders on an unstable patient, then that's a problem. The only way your scenario works without requiring any more context is if the cops managed to bring this unconscious, just-had-a-motor-vehicle-accident patient to a hospital and the hospital had no intention of evaluating him. Which is absolutely insane.Physician [Internal Medicine]Coffeebeanz posted...He was also unconscious, in a motor vehicle accident, and in a hospital.

what does that have to do with anything? they wanted the blood now to test it before an alleged alcohol left his system..he doesn't have to "go back with the cops" immediately after. They draw the blood, send it in for tests, the man stays at the hospital and is released to police after he recovers pending the result of that test...what are you even saying anymore? If someone else ordered it then where is that person? Why would they go through a cop? Why is she being arrested before the person who you claim asked her to do it stepped in and directly told her to do it?The ER doc would obviously have ordered a serum ethanol level as soon as inebriation was suspected. Granted, if the cops are just trying to push the nurse to do it as quickly as possible so they can send in the results, that's straight-up illegal.
But. We. Don't. Know. That.
Contextually speaking, the nurse SHOULD draw the labs as soon as possible for purely medical reasons. And then she can tell the cops to f*** off because they aren't allowed to have the results without his consent. The issue at hand here is that she's refusing to DRAW labs. Not that she's refusing to give away private health information.Physician [Internal Medicine]So an ER Doc ordered it, and rather than tell the nurse themselves they decided to relay it to the cop that brought the suspect in. Then the Cop demanded it from the nurse and she was arrested. At that point the ER Doc and no one else in the hospital decided to prevent that...

I don't think the cops should've been involved in ANY capacity. It's none of their f***ing business. But it violates EMTALA to refuse to draw labs on an unstable patient.

I don't know where you're getting the idea that the hospital didn't already treat this man for his medical conditions (especially considering he was burned pretty badly). The cop isn't asking for the results, he wants blood.

A criminal gets into a car chase with police.
The criminal causes an accident during the chase killing himself and injuring another dude.
The injured dude gets into the hospital burned and uncautious.
-The police get into problems when causing damage or accidents during pursuit.
So the police tries to get the bloodwork of the victim of the car crash caused by the chase of the now dead criminal. Just to blame the victim with drunk driving if the test is positive. That way they can bust him for drunk driving and are not at fault.
Nurse refuses under order from her supervisor to give them the blood.
Cop powertrips and assaults her on the spot to arrest her for refusing his 'order'.
If she gave them the blood she would break the law and hospital regulations, probably get fired and could never work in the medical field again.

Just because they are an officer doesnt mean you are obligated to listen to them nor is it grounds to be arrested if your not actually violating the law.

This officer and anyone like him who makes an illegal arrest because they didnt get their way should be removed from their position.

Tldr: This ruling overrules a previous decision that did allow involuntary withdrawal of blood. The reasoning that has changed is because of the change in technology and the efficiency in which BAC can be extracted and tested. The exigent circumstances rule no longer apply.

Should be, but won't be.
Yeah -_-River Song: Well, I was off to this gay gypsy bar mitzvah for the disabled when I thought 'Gosh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish, I think i'll kill the Fuhrer'No matter how you look at it it's bad. He's either ignorant of the law he's supposed to uphold and arrested an innocent person by force, he has a power trip complex and was asserting himself or he asked someone to break the law so he could catch someone.
...none of those are good things.tremain07 posted...Why wont people just do what the cops say without trying making a fuss? They have a gun and a badge, that's not a fight you'r'e gonna win.

Not only that, professionals are obligated in their duty to not do certain things. For the nurse, this was one of the things. She was thinking of herself and for her profession.Veggeta X posted...The chief of police and mayor already said the police man is wrong, is currently suspended and will be further internally investigated. Justice prevail on this one, yall.
Justice wont prevail until a suit follows by the nurse or someone else over what happened. Its not like this cop was in the middle of a heated life or death situation that required a split second decision. It was more like: Do this. No? You're coming with me. Totally unacceptable.Veggeta X posted...The chief of police and mayor already said the police man is wrong, is currently suspended and will be further internally investigated.

I wouldn't necessarily be so sure. I believe they said the cop was only suspended from phlebotomy duties. Even if he gets charged (he better be facing serious charges) cops tend to get favorable outcomes.
I'm just saying, but I've seen way too many cases where a cop is very clearly in the wrong and they get off with a slap on the wrist.
The ",but the cops protect us" defense gets used effectively way too much.just tell them all your base doesn't belong to us because we were getting stoned...they'll understand-Ken156Veggeta X posted...There's still an internal investigation going on so we shall see what happens next. Can't be deebie downers about it.
Yes hopefully the officers entire life is ruined for this, but that never seems to happen. Guy should be fired and jailed, but I feel like fired is the only realistic outcome.
Sounds like he could personally be sued by the nurse so hopefully she takes everything he is worth from him.
This cop really deserves to rot. Abuse of an authority position is such a downright rotten thing to do.just tell them all your base doesn't belong to us because we were getting stoned...they'll understand-Ken156lol wow @Coffeebeanz what the f*** were you even trying to accomplish with your posts in this topic

She does this quite a bit tbh. Like every time I ever hear her talk about medical stuff I know she is going to have a bad opinion.
It's pretty bad when the resident doctor in training seems to be one of the least credible on medical issues. Her posts ITT were clearly not at all about discovering the truth of this situation, but of showing off her medical knowledge just trying to sound smarter than everybody else.
The irony is that her flexing her knowledge actually made her out to be a pretty ignorant person.
She comes off pretty cool and likable when discussing video games and stuff like that though.
Her political opinions are pretty bad as well as she is the epitome of the "I'm not a Trump supporter, but..."just tell them all your base doesn't belong to us because we were getting stoned...they'll understand-Ken156literal_garbage posted...Honestly, you should always be arrested/dealt with if you refuse an order from a officer of the law.
I don't get this new trend of, "I don't agree with the cops so f*** them!" thinking

I think what everyone who's not part of medical decision making did was misinterpret what she said as some defense of the cop, despite the fact that she preemptively went out of her way to state the cop was in the wrong in X scenario multiple times because she could foresee all of the absolutely pointless b****ing.

They won't.Also, hopefully the officers involved are all sued for every penny they have. Retirement, college savings for their children, valuable assets...etc. Take it all. f*** suing the state...the taxpayers fit that bill. Make the actual individuals responsible. We need to send a message that it's not okay to do this.

I'm part of medical decision making
Let me tell you it was really obvious from the video that there wasn't more to the story, at least not enough to even slightly justify the cops behaviorStarted from the bottom now we hereLike if nothing else descalating situations is so important in hospitals
The cop was acting like a madmen probably stressing the f*** out of any patients nearby
I've seen it a thousand times with security guards panicking and getting physical when talking it out is still an option at my work placeStarted from the bottom now we here@Coffeebeanz

"Unconcious" is a completely irrelevant details
The actual punchline is that a cop can't order labs and, in a hospital, doesnt have authority over medical professionals.
And you're assuming that the cops bypassed the ER, got to the actual medical area (there's PHI bins everywhere), bypassed all the doctors and demanded a random nurse to draw labs on a patient.
If that's what actually happened, then you have an argument. I suspect the nurse got an order to draw labs from a physician and refused to do so based on misinterpreting the hospital's policy on drawing ethanol levels on patients who are arrested but not being admitted for treatment.
Do we have those details though?Some say that his voice can only be heard by cats, and that he has two sets of knees... all we know is, he's called the Stig.Dathrowed1 posted...MrPeppers posted...

It took you an awful lot longer than everyone else to figure out the context. Maybe if you didn't spend so much time patting yourself on the back for being a doctor you'd see you have all the info you need right in front of you.just tell them all your base doesn't belong to us because we were getting stoned...they'll understand-Ken156- Boards
