I heard this through the grapevine, and was mortified!
A Labor and Delivery nurse at Sibley was fired for trying to report malpractice. A young physician told a nurse to, 'keep their mouth shut,' about a situation. The nurse tried to use the reporting system to file a complaint, but they fired them before they could. Apparently, it's gone to the DC Dept. of Health. Hopefully, they'll take care of everything! I have to say, there have been A LOT of nurses that have left Sibley and had similar stories. I guess, the morale is... Sibley gets a lot of bad press in OB, and it's got a lot of merit. Try not to blame the nurses! Apparently, they can't help you as much as they'd like!
