All was thought to be well until one office visit the doctor went across the hall to check on another patient who seemed to have an infected leg. The doctor left the door open where confidentiality here was obviously not being taking into consideration for the patient he was seeing as well as others who were able to hear them. Since the door was open, his parents noticed that he did not change his gloves while entering that other room and came back to check on their son with no gloves on. Dr. M was concerned about Jacobs leg and told him to come back the following week while treating it with antibiotics. The following week he comes back only to see that he has developed osteomyelitis. This was the same infection that the other patient developed while under the care of his supervision. Jacobs delay in his recover cost him the opportunity to play football and a college scholarship.

On page 98 of the novel is an important passage that clarifies the reader’s understanding of the true direction in which Randy’s moral compass points—set at a point in the story shortly after the first few hydrogen bombs drop and chaos begins to erupt, this passage shows us Randy’s internal struggle with the “every man for himself” mentality he deems necessary to survive. While he knows that his first priority is ensuring the safety of his family, his sister-in-law Helen and her children, he still stops the car and gets out to inspect the damage caused by a wreck on the side of the road. He thinks himself “soft and stupid” for doing so, but goes through with the act because he’s unable to repress the instinct to check on the accident.

Basketball rims and courts are not designed for kids to give each other boost in order for them to dunk a basketball. While that may a desperate grasp to justify the wrong doing of the contributing parties it is the only defense that I can see a lawyer can take.

All of their failures will have a child suffer for a lifetime. Medical treatment Centers need to ensure the all staff members know their roles and practice the appropriate standard of
