In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Jessica Sites and Nurse Erica interview Delanor Manson, the Chief Executive Officer of the Kentucky Nurses Association. They discuss the passing of House Bill 159 in Kentucky, which decriminalizes unintentional medical errors, making it the first and only state to do so. The bill provides immunity from criminal liability for healthcare workers and encourages a just culture of quality improvement and open communication. Delanor shares the process of writing and championing the bill. They also discuss the impact of the bill on nurse recruitment, retention, and the nursing profession as a whole. Additionally the discussion includes other legislation they have been directly involved in. Delanor highlights the Leadership and Advocacy Academy program offered by the Kentucky Nurses Association to teach nurses advocacy skills and engage with legislators. They have implemented programs to encourage nurses to get involved in politics and decision-making.

This episode discusses alleged allegations that may not be confirmed at this time.
In this episode, Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica are joined by legal nurse consultant Matthew Garvey to discuss the recent cyber attack on Ascension Healthcare. The goal of this episode is to provide information and education for the frontline staff affected. They discuss the lack of preparedness by Ascension for such attacks and the potential liability that nurses may face. Board of Nursing liability still applies during a crisis, and nurses are accountable to the board's standards of practice. Suggested documentation should include a statement about practicing during the ransomware attack. Nurses should continue to enter incidents into the reporting system, despite any alleged discouragement. Lack of preparedness, such as not having sufficient downtime forms, binders or racks for paper documentation, is unacceptable and should be addressed by nurse leaders. There is a focus on the challenges of paper charting during a cyber attack and the lack of support from leadership. They also highlight the issue of managers not supporting staff during a crisis and the potential violation of their responsibilities. The incident command center is mentioned as a crucial resource that should be activated to provide support and guidance during emergencies. It emphasizes the need for clear and consistent messaging to build trust among healthcare workers. The discussion also touches on the ethical and legal considerations of informing patients about delays due to downtime. The lack of a bed board patient tracking system and the use of paper MARs are identified as major challenges during the cyber attack. The conversation concludes with advice to the frontline healthcare workers.
