2. What are some of the concerns Selena might have about bringing this problem to the attention of hospital management?

Selena Suriaga noticed that one of the surgeons whose patients were brought to her unit after their time in the recovery area had more diffi culty regaining full consciousness than did the other postsurgical patients. When she mentioned it at lunch one day, a recovery area nurse said, “Sure, he insists on deep anesthesia and wants us to keep his patients sedated. He believes that this will improve his satisfaction ratings.”
“Th at ’ s no reason to overmedicate,” said Selena.
“Of course not,” said the recovery nurse, “but he gets very angry if we don ’ t give his patients the full amount ordered.”
“I think we should tell someone,” suggested Selena.
