No matter what you call it, it is assault - if that is how the mother
perceives it. Nurses are not allowed to assault patients, this needs to be
reported and corrected.
Several people have mentioned ways to report, if mom doesn't want to
herself. If she has signed a release for the pix and it doesn't include her
face and it is OK with her, I would see that the pix goes privately to the
Maternal Child health supervisor. The mother or specific nurse does not
have to be identified, just one that it is one of their staff. It is a
general complaint and needs to be dealt with at a nursing staff meeting or
short inservice. If nothing happens, then to hosp risk management team.
Actually that mom has a very good case vs the nurse, but it doesn't sound
like she wants to pursue it.
That really doesn't help educate the staff either. One of those instances
that makes a great opportunity for teaching!
