This story has been gnawing at me since I first heard about it as it broke last week.
I'm currently in nursing school and I hope I never have to deal with something like this after I graduate and start working.
I have always felt that police officers, first responders and nurses (especially ED type) share a common bond just based on the nature of the work. It feels like that family was broken in this story. The disrespect shown by the officer is broad and far ranging.
Very unfortunate all around. If nothing else I hope steps are taken around the country to prevent such egregious events from happening again.

That particular hospital in Utah has already changed their policy where Law Enforcement is not allowed in patient care areas and has to only interact with management. I think we might see more of this type of policy nation wide.
Good luck with school! Its long and its tough but it is supposed to be because it is worth it.
