women panic when things don't go according to the plan
It's not only a woman thing.
There's people who fight, flee, or freeze.
The problem is there is no real standardized test to test for someone's reaction under pressure.
So someone can go through all of this training and all kinds of simulations and it is all just a game until shit hits the fan and they can't handle the pressure.
Yeah , after she said she wasn't gonna take it further , i told if not for your own sake at least it might prevent it actually happening again to someone else with fatal consequences - Nope still not even - just utterly demoralised.
Agreed - literally a set procedure/ protocol to follow - extensively drilled during training/ use with the equipment. Panics and Forgets everything - then attempts to do the exact opposite of what the procedure says to do. (iirc, something like Immediately stop the blood extraction - disconnect lines from both arms - triage - Begin administering saline solution with some specific counter-anticoagulant drug - Not drown the patient's blood by introducing even more anticoagulant) Suggested she make a Formal complaint about the Nurse (and lack of adhering to training etc) - Brushes it off with ' Too much hassle - just an honest mistake'. Still smh.
