Fracture = broken

Urgent care has liability insurance just like hospitals... A lawyer will handle it for you if this is the rout you decide to take.

Regardless of what it was, if they are legally allowed to perform medical procedures, they are bound to the legal requirements associated with what they have to do. I'm pretty sure patient care is on that list. If its not a doctor, only a nurse or duty, depending on where they went to school, they may not have taken an oath to do no harm... But seriously notify someone about this treatment. Faster you respond, the more serious they take it. If you call in 2 weeks and try to convince someone about the care they will ask why it took two weeks to contact them. Good luck OP. I am going to guess that when you step forward about the quality of care you received, others that were too timid to say anything will step forward with you. Wow. Sorry about the long answer >.

I wouldn't try a lawsuit but reporting the poor treatment would be a good idea.

Are you feeling any better now?

Nurse, doctor, medical assistant, whoever, can get into trouble for malpractice. However, being a nurse, it is more likely that her AND the doctor she works under will be in trouble.

Hey there, nursing student here!! You gave the nurse an okay to touch you, but she still treated you in humanely. If you can prove she made the damage worse, you might have a lawsuit. Other than that, I think filing a complaint is the best way to go. It's a shame today's healthcare doesn't give the utmost care to our society. :( I hope you start to feel better!!

You can't sue for that. There was no malpractice in that instance and you'd lose. Waste of money. Just tell her supervisor so she loses her job.

OP, you should lodge a complaint and speak with the nurse's supervisor before filing a suit.

As well you should good luck op :)

Does not matter. They were still negligent after being warned that it was excruciating

you could def get her fired for negligence. be careful though, OP!

dipshit. Broken bones are casted because they shouldn't be moved. When they are "dropped" the momentum of the distance fallen suddenly stopping makes the bone move, which causes damage. Unicorns and rainbows? You're a ******, don't call anyone a pansy

wow you are just like that nurse.. her mentality seperated a bone into two SEPERATE pieces

So you've been man-handled by an oblivious nurse to the point of your bones separating from each other? Why didn't you give OP any advice then?

He has no advice. He is the bonecrusher.

Chances are that if they injured the OP more, they'll do it to the other patients too. It may not be the first or the last time that it'll happen.

Oh shut up 160. A patient broke their arm getting an X-ray after being spoken to in a rude manor. If the hospital doesn't do anything about their employee a lawsuit is recommended. They can do it to other patients too. Jesus.
