Scrubs and Subpoenas: Nursing Scope of Practice - A $150 Million Mistake Part 2
Episode 8
Tuesday, 18 November, 2025
Scrubs and Subpoenas: Nursing Scope of Practice - A $150 Million Mistake Part 2 SUMMARY: Scrubs and Subpoenas: Nursing Scope of Practice is a podcast series that explores the critical role of nursing scope of practice in ensuring patient safety and reducing malpractice claims. Through real-life malpractice cases, this series provides insights into the boundaries of nursing responsibilities, the consequences of exceeding or neglecting these boundaries, and actionable strategies to align practice with legal and ethical standards. Each episode serves as a cautionary tale and a guide to fostering accountability, transparency, and excellence in nursing care. In this episode, we dive into the largest malpractice case ever filed against a nurse practitioner. This story begins with a young family NP working alone in a rural, four bed emergency room, caring for a patient rushed in after a syncopal event and a subsequent head injury sustained in the ER. Lack of resources and ineffective protocol blocked proper care for this patient, leading to a catastrophic pulmonary embolism. We dive into the incongruence of court protections for NPs vs. MDs, and the detrimental implications of restrictive practice scopes. Explore the connections between healthcare deserts and poor patient outcomes, and where NPs fit into this complex puzzle. ---Nurses may be able to complete an accredited CE activity featuring content from this podcast and earn CE hours provided from Elite Learning by Colibri Healthcare.
