Discuss the political modeling of not-for-profit hospital boards of trustees and how decisions might be made with regard to whether a hospital chooses to treat as many patients as possible or being as high quality as possible.

In: Nursing
Natalie Rodriguez is a clinical nurse on a 65-bed oncology unit in a large teaching hospital in Phoenix, Arizona. She is a new graduate from a baccalaureate nursing program and strives to provide the best possible care to each of her clients. Nurse Rodriguez checks in on a 90-year-old patient, Mrs. Marting, who has pancreatic cancer. She has only one granddaughter, Allie, to come visit and stay with her for long hours each day, and the two are very close. Mrs. Marting has said she does not want any resuscitation measures, but when Nurse Rodriguez offers her DNR forms to sign, she waves them away. “I’m too sick right now, dear,” she says. “Let me deal with paperwork some other time.” In the meantime, Nurse Rodriguez has other patients she must attend to, but even as she tries to perform other tasks, Mrs. Marting’s wishes are on her mind. However, before she can return to Mrs. Marting and Allie, Dr. Daly arrives on the unit with a list of demands. Dr. Daly has a reputation for wanting “what I want when I want it,” and he asks Nurse Rodriguez to complete a laundry list of tasks that are not particularly patient-centered. She is restocking a supply cabinet, at his request, when Allie calls for help. Dr. Daly gets to Mrs. Marting’s room first and by the time Nurse Rodriguez arrives, Allie is begging the doctor to “do whatever it takes to save my grandma!” Mrs. Marting has undergone cardiac arrest. Nurse Rodriguez explains Mrs. Marting’s wishes, but Allie says, “I know, but I don’t care now! Just save her!” and Dr. Daly starts resuscitation.
