This is all true, I worked with these people. It went on so long due to the constant turnover of nurse managers, a national problem. Also, this group of nurses was able to intimidate and run off nurses who tried to stop them. The vast majority of nurses at St. Joe and elsewhere are selfless and hardworking. It is also a shame that Dr. Selinger's name was brought up in all of this. He is an excellent physician and has nothing to do with this controversy. I applaud the new management at St. Joe Eureka for taking a bold and fearless approach to dealing with this problem. Let us move past this and continue to provide the care Humboldt County needs and deserves.
