The plaintiff ordered immediate orders for antibiotics for Debbie who was diagnosed with toxic shock syndrome CITATION Geo19 \l 1033 (Pozgar, 2019). The act of Kirk was to save the patient because any delay could have resulted in death. The hospital terminated the nurse which reflects malfeasance CITATION Pau93 \l 1033 (Kim, 1993).
