Another Good Respiratory Therapist Bad Respiratory Therapist

***Trigger warning: This episode has elements of child sexual abuse.

 

This week, Tina is joined by Megan, a respiratory therapist and the better half of Tom, co-host of the Just Some Podcast show. Together, they discuss the extremely disturbing and shocking story of Wayne Albert Bleyle, a respiratory therapist who had a reputation as an exemplary employee for over two decades at a children's hospital before investigators made a horrific discovery on his home computer. The good RT story is about a man who put his skills to good use when he happened upon a motorcycle accident and was the only medical professional there until EMS arrived.

This week on GNBN, we are starting a new segment after the Good Nurse story. "Not Necessarily Nursing News" is a satire news segment where Tina will read a news article meant to be funny and inciteful. Then she and her guest host will discuss the article and the serious subject matter that goes along with it. This week's "Not Necessarily Nursing News" is brought to you by LiveWell Health.
