You say what you feel, man. Knowing that a hospital's administration promotes unsafe and illegal practices would certainly not make me want to give my life or the lives of my loved ones into their care. It's downright scary. I think you were right to post this information to the public. People have a right to know what's happening when it concerns their own healthcare, especially when that care is in danger. I can't blame you for leaving. It isn't right that you had to because of some people's unnecessary drama, but you have to do what's best for you too.
I had a response ready and it disappeared. So I'll try again. First off I am appalled and a bit mad that you were treated that way. Your dream was reality and these bad people messed that up. Knowing you, I can guarantee that you were the nurse that everyone wanted to be theirs. I know you are a good nurse and, God willing, will continue your dream in a place that will appreciate you. Second, why does Brownfield need a bigger hospital? It hasn't grown much since the early 80's and I'm assuming that hasn't really changed. Instead of a bigger hospital they should be focusing on getting better retail stores to boost the economy and give residents a reason not to go spend their money in Lubbock. It would be a waste of taxpayers money and would also be another reason for people to not like B-town. I miss it but not the small town politics. I hope you find a good place to land on your feet (in nursing shoes) You deserve to live that dream.....

Thank you. Your comment is extremely affirming. I'm considering writing a revised version of this for the newspaper.
