Nurses are always at risk for accusations of medical malpractice or negligence. If someone filed a complaint against you, your license could be put in danger if not defended by a nurse attorney. An RN from Bulverde, Texas is just one of the many examples of nurses who were charged with practicing without a license and failed to hire an effective nurse attorney.
This is exactly what happened to an RN in Bulverde. Read on to find out her case.
At the time of the incident, the RN was employed as a Registered Nurse in a hospital in Bulverde and had been in that position for eight years and eight months.
On or about April 1, 2018, through August 5, 2019, the RN practiced as a Registered Nurse despite the fact her nursing license expired on March 31, 2018, and was not renewed until August 6, 2019. Her conduct deceived patients, their families, fellow caregivers, and the public in that they believed the RN’s nursing practice was in compliance with all Board Rules and Regulations.
Because of this, the RN was summoned by the Texas Board of Nursing to defend her side of the story. In response to the incident, the RN states she made a mistake. She feels ashamed and embarrassed, and she is very disappointed in herself.
However, without an effective nurse attorney to help her defend her side, the RN was suspended by the Texas Board of Nursing.
