"In my own practice, I have found that when I am faced with a situation
where a nurse/colleague/doctor has done or said something that I feel was
inappropriate or dare I say negligent--the story is never that simple.
Usually after I take the time to find out "the entire story" it plays out
very differently then I originally imagined.  There is often no easily
defined right or wrong. (This does not infringe on my belief that "Mom is
always right"--I only commenting on communication issues between health care
professionals.)"

 

This is so true and such a common scenario in my practice also.  That is why
I continue to encourage (actually, implore) private practice or non-hospital
LC's to CALL and get the "rest of the story" when they are faced with
so-called "train wrecks" from the hospital.
