Re: Woman's lawsuit claims assault during ultrasoundFrom: Allen Worrall (jworrall@alaska.net)Mon Jul 3 16:16:31 2006
That is the "Captain of the Ship" doctrine or theory: whatever doctor or group of doctors, or hospital, or clinic, that was employing this sonographer is responsible for his or her actions. If he had been properly supervised, trained, indoctrinated, etc, this would not have happened. If the organization the sonographer was working for had a proper sexual assault doctrine, policy, and training program, (which the plaintif attorney will declare inadequate even if they have such a program), this would not have happened. And of course the Captain of the Ship has far more money that the poor employee. There is no sense in the plaintif attorney wasting his or her time sueing a sonographer for millions when the sonographer obviously does not have that kind of money. But a hospital, a radiology group, a clinic - ahhh, that is another story. They have "deep pockets". Allen

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
