The two doctor, Dr. Layne and Dr. Powell, witness how Dr. Black was doing but never seemed to ask him to get medical help.

Flags should have went off and not only that but once the “cocaine” was found the law enforcement should have been contacted.

After repeated offenses, he was justly punished for his breach of trust. The one-year suspension took away his profession and means of economic support. By making his actions part of the public record, he was duly shamed and embarrassed within his professional community as well as in the eye of the general public. In turn, the state “Board” generously provided for his rehabilitation after disciplinary action. They provided/required the nurse to stay substance clean and get involved with professional help groups in the hope that these nurses can return and again become trusted professionals. The two part, disciplinary and rehabilitory aspects of the state “Board’s” courses of action in regard to unethical misconduct is to protect the medical institutions, patients, and even the nurse, who breaches their ethical duty by personal…

    One million women of child-bearing age use cocaine (Blatt, Meguid, & Church, 2000). Cocaine use during pregnancy can affect a pregnant woman and her baby in many ways. During the early months of pregnancy, cocaine may increase the risk of miscarriage. Later in pregnancy, it may trigger preterm labor or cause the baby to grow poorly. As a result, cocaine-exposed babies are more likely than unexposed babies to be born prematurely and with low birth weight. Premature and low-birth weight babies are at increased risk of health problems during the newborn period, lasting disabilities such as mental retardation and cerebral palsy, and even death. Cocaine-exposed babies also tend to have smaller heads, which generally reflect smaller brains and an increased risk of learning problems.…
