Florida Hospital Sues To End Ill Nurse s Life

(Rosem Morton/Reuters) “Futile care” the forced removal by doctors and hospital bioethics committees of wanted life-extending treatment over patient and family objections is, alas, still the law of Texas. And now a hospital in Florida has sued for the right to do the same thing to Genea Bristol, age 41. Here’s the bitter irony: Bristol is a nurse who contracted COVID caring for coronavirus patients in nursing homes and experienced severe lung damage. Now, she is threatened with losing her own life despite her own apparent views on such a decision and the wishes of her mother. Here’s the story: Bristol’s doctors believe it is in her best interest to remove life-extending treatment. But Bristol’s mother refused. So, the administrators of Lawnwood Regional Medical Center sued to have a court order to terminate treatment.

Lawnwood hospital: Don t force us to preserve life of COVID victim

View Comments Lawnwood Regional Medical Center has 10 days to amend a disturbing petition asking a judge to end life-prolonging measures for one of their nurses stricken with COVID-19 and send her to hospice over her mother’s objections. St. Lucie County Circuit Judge Laurie Buchanan dismissed Lawnwood s initial request Wednesday, agreeing with John Anastasio, attorney for Genea Bristol’s mother, Belinda Bristol, that the pleading was legally insufficient. Bristol, 41, worked at Lawnwood s physical rehabilitation center when she contracted COVID-19 and recovered without hospitalization in April 2020, and when the Vero Beach mother of three was diagnosed again Jan. 12. “They are trying to kill the patient,” Stuart-based Anastasio said Wednesday, noting Genea Bristol risked her life going back into the “lion’s den” at Lawnwood after her first recovery. “She is one of their own. How can they do this?”
