Maggie Ortiz, the Advocate4nurses, and I discuss a medical malpractice plaintiff case in which there appeared to be  "comedy of errors".

Maggie is careful to remind our nurse listeners of their rights and the importance of protecting their license at all costs and if sued, to seek representation and an advocate!
