Critical Thinking Question number 2 ch 6:
One day, Linda arrives at work on the behavioral care unit. She is informed that the staffing office has requested that a nurse from the psychiatric unit report to the intensive care unit (ICU). They need help in caring for an agitated car accident victim with a history of schizophrenia.    Linda goes to the ICU and joins a nurse named Corey in providing care for the patient. Eventually, the patient is stabilized and goes to sleep, and Corey leaves the unit for a break. Because Linda is unfamiliar with the telemetry equipment, she fails to recognize that the patient is having an arrhythmia, and the patient experiences a cardiopulmonary arrest. Although he is successfully resuscitated, he suffers permanent brain damage. a. Can Linda legally practice in this situation? (That is, does her RN license permit her to practice in the intensive care unit?) b. Does the ability to practice legally in an area differ from the ability to practice competently in that area? c. Did Linda have any legal or ethical grounds to refuse the assignment to the intensive care unit? d. What are the risks in accepting an assignment in an area of specialty in which you are professionally unprepared to practice? e. Would there have been any way for Linda to minimize the risk of retaliation by the employer had she refused the assignment? f. If Linda is negligent, is the hospital liable for any harm to the patient caused by her?
