Literally every medication has warnings slapped all over it. My partner worked at Vanderbilt (on a different floor) around this time, and one constant complaint I heard (prior to the incident) was how there was hardly any controls around anything there.

Every medication does not have a bright red cap with a bold warning printed on the top (that you have to look at at least twice while reconstituting and then drawing up the med). The warnings on a vial of Vecuronium go well beyond the typical "This medication may case XYZ side effect", and for very good reason.

Yeah, there's no doubt that this is a shitshow from how Vandy is described (and nursing in general especially with these automated pharm boxes), but that should be additional consequences, not this nurse avoiding hers.
