A Winnipeg nurse has lost her licence for a long list of bad behaviour that includes racist remarks and feuding with a family member of a cancer patient.
The nurse was also directed to pay $50,000 toward the cost of her hearing in front of the College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba.
The college determined the nurse was, in their words, “ungovernable” based on a series of complaints dating back to 2007.
Among the complaints were that the nurse openly made racist comments, as well as belittling and mocking patients and staffers.
She once ignored safety protocols by leaving an incontinent, homeless COVID-19 patient in the emergency department rather than transferring him to a hospital bed.
And she once pushed back against a family member who tried to visit a patient in distress while dealing with Stage 4 breast cancer.
