ANSWER BOTH
- What would you do if you were a medical administrator at the time the request was made? 1. Would have not honored this mans request. Wouldve explained why tonya battle and other african american nurses are best suited to take care of this child. 2. Would have done exactly what the hospital did. The man has a right to have his child taken care of by someone of a race or gender of his choosing.
- What would you do about the lawsuit? 1. Fight it. Its ridiculous that someone would feel emotional distress and humiliation from simply being reassigned. 2. Settle it and create a policy that prohibits honoring future requests like this. 3. Settle it but hold a hospitalwide meeting explaining the rationale for continuing to accommodate such requests.
Explanation / Answer
1.)Before the Hospital Administrator I am a human being and the core value of a human being is not discriminate anyone on basis of their color,caste,religion and so on.As a Hospital Administrator I would strongly reject the request as It is not pragmatic and logical by any stretch of the imagination.If it were a request to change the nurse because she is not performing her duty well , I would have considered it.It is understandable that the person is sensitive about his new born baby and I would have assured him that his baby is in perfect hands right now and He should worry much.
2.)Settle it and create policies to not to entertain requests like this in future.I would have settled this with employess personally awarding them pay raise with some settlement amount and a sincere apology.Also i would promise them as well as others that this work place will not have any type of discrimination whatsoever,Since this is the place where we save lives not hurt lives.
