    Regarding Pou’s arrest, What stood out to me was the gravity of the situation and the ethical dilemmas it presented. It was an emotional time when they were not treating her well. She had worked so hard” without sleep and without nourishment” to help Katrina at Memorial. As Pou was taken to jail, I imagine there were mixed emotions. ON one hand, she might have felt a sense of relief that the immediate crisis was over and she could no longer be directly involved in making life-and-death decisions.

    In Foti’s press conference and Rick Simmons response, the points that will determine innocence or guilt are likely to revolve around intent the medical necessity of action taken, and whether there were viable alternative available to Pou. Other points that may come into play include the testimony of witnesses, medical experts, and any evidence that supports or contradicts the allegations.

    Developing the skills necessary to provide leadership during a crisis requires a combination of training, experience, and personal qualities. Some of the other skills are knowledge, expertise, decision making under pressure, communication and coordination, emotional resilience, and learning from experience.

    Charity hospital fared better during the hurricane compared to other healthcare facilities for several reasons for disaster training and planning some of them are preparation, training, adequate resources, clear communication.
