"A 17-year-old Boston high school student suffered a stroke while in class but did not receive the medical assistance he needed after officials called his mother instead of 911.
The teen’s mother, who is wheelchair-bound, is furious, asking why the school nurse did not recognize the signs of his health failing when the boy complained about feeling tired and his side felt numb.
D’Andre Hicks, a junior at the Henderson Inclusion (Upper School) in Dorchester, Mass, became ill while under the school’s supervision in early May 2022."

It's all too easy to lack empathy and compassion for a young man when you don't recognize the young man's humanity.

I have been a Nurse for over 20 years the first thing she should have done was make sure he was safe from body injuries and instruct someone to call 911. This is just disgusting she needs her license revoked smh . Some people are becoming nurses for financial support no empathy or compassion for people at all.

Nurses can be reported to state nursing board, I'm a nurse and she should be held accountable for her actions.
A healthy teen should NEVER HAVE THOSE SYMPTOMS if they occur... CALL 911!!! WTF KIND OF NURSE IS THAT???
Get that money and be rid of that incompetent nurse
I typed in her name. Dr. Brenda Cassellius. People need to know exactly what she did to the child. Everyone should spread the word. These people don't need to be working with children at all.

school nurse and whoever else involved needs to be in jail. this is negligence!
Wow boy that school & nurse needs 2 be held accountable & that nurse never needs 2 be a nurse ever again. Senseless
She has to go and revoke that license asap. I wonder how many other students she has ignored.
Omg !!! This is outrageous this school nurse needs to be fired and her so called nursing license revoked.
Sue the school for neglect.
Yes, this was intentional negligence and the mother should definitely sue the school district and the nurse should be fired and her license revoked…
I hope the mum is going to file a law suit against the school that women needs to be taken to court.

I was an EMT. TIME is the most important thing for a stroke. The sooner it can be treated, the better the outcome. Even if he was having a diabetic episode, 911 still should have been called. She should lose her license full stop. Dereliction of her duty.

My Dad just died from a stroke. You have to phone 911 asap. Doctor said my Dad had too much bleeding, swelling & brain damage & had him removed from life support.
That nurse needs to FIRED! We trust that our children are safe at school.
They will call 911 if a Black kid raises his voice. Medical emergency? No big deal....call mother. Nurse must lose license. District must be sued.
Hope they take her to court and make her lose her license.
The nurse should be fired. The family should sue the nurse and school.
That nurse deserves to lose her license. I'm a retired RN and she makes me ill. She doesn't deserve to be considered a medical healthcare worker.
That nurse needs to be forbidden to have involvement with persons needing medical care. You folks are doing a great job with this program.

That nurse should be fired and never hired out as a nurse in a school again.
People saying she should get fired that’s all great but she needs to lose her license. In every state! Sue the school board for negligence they’re responsible they hired her. Sue the nurse take for everything she has! ITa is nothing to play with! As a former cNa I had one at the hospital. I pray for his healing 🙏🏽

Call an ambulance to come get the child then call the parent to advise of what has taken place. Time is crucial for a stroke patient.
For all the folks saying that this young man shouldn't be having a stroke, there are several medical conditions that you can be born with that can put you at risk for stroke at an early age.

Call 911, then call the parent. That is what I learned as a summer camp counselor. If there is an injury call 911, then call parent. That nurse needs to be charged with attempted murder, child neglect, and a hate crime.
The school wanted the child off the school campus to avoid liability. If he is with his mother and she takes him to the hospital, they can claim that his situation must have deteriorated after he left the school.

There are three things that need to happen to that nurse she should get her license taken away she should lose her job and she should be in jail
that nurse should fired and not allowed to EVER work in health care. no re-school, no re-fresher course, no homework .... just plain and simple FIRED !

Right
What wasn't reported here is that,,,,,,even though the school personnel KNEW that the mother had mobility problems, they *CALLED CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES* because the mother didn't get there fast enough!!! This mother needs to file a civil suit, AND report this "nurse" to the medical board. I'd also file suit against the nurse myself. I would also send emails, tweeets,, etc to the parents letting them know what really happened & how THEIR kids could be in danger if they suffered a medical emergency. I'd alert the local news stations too
Sue, sue and report the nurse to the health board. More lies and no accountability as usual!
Hopefully his mother had reported the nurse to the licensing board. She doesn’t need to be a nurse at all no where.
She should definitely be fired immediately negligent the boy almost lost his life
Act FAST for a stroke, check Face for drooping, check Arms for weakness, check for Slurred speech and do so in a Timely manner as the longer a stroke goes on the more damage it can do. I'm not a nurse this is just basic first aid stuff I know. This hopefully trained "nurse" did not act FAST. Sue fast and sue hard.
Sue their ass , our children are abused on every level of society😡
That’s discussing. The so called nurse should at the very minimum loose her job and license if she has one!The school’s whole system needs to be investigated.
WHAT!!!! What the hell? That nurse better not be there anymore. GOD save our children. Thank you for bringing up Massachusetts.
So pleased that the young man is alive. He needs restitution for the negligence and the "nurse" needs to have her license revoked.

Medical neglect, she needs to be arrested ,I worked in the NYC school medical room ,this is medical neglect
This is horrible and a school I worked in had a similar situation and the student died because the nurse wouldn't give him CPR. This happened years ago, but couldn't look at that school nurse the same way again. It devastated the students and staff. This was a horrific event and going to leave it at that. Too painful to remember that loss. It is an Urban school.....
that nurse should be fired and have her license revoked and the school supervisor fired.
Damn everybody need to be fired after this. Then they need to pay the family at least 1 million.
I would sue the county. I hope they don't settle for less than 5 million
I didn't hear anything about the so called "nurse" being arrested for FAILURE of getting medical attention via an ambulance for that student! Please follow up Doc.

Wow incompetence and racism she just didn't care. Thank God he is still alive.
When is this violation going to stop???? 😢
Disgraceful! All children need to be treated with the same love and care, especially at school.
I hope she lose her license! At the point of stroke the reason why he was having one is irrelevant!
Strip her of her license, she doesn't even know when to call 911.
What is wrong with that nurse? Disgusting. My daughter had type 1 diabetes all the way through school, she was diagnosed at 3. If you get a nurse that thinks they know more than the parents, it is very difficult. Their family had a history of strokes, so they were all very aware of the symptoms. We live diabetes 24/7/365. I hope they get some justice.
I feel so sorry for that student... glad that he is ok. Going by her actions or lack of, you'd think that the nurse was at home sick that day, and one of the lunch ladies filled in for her. At any rate, that school deserves a huge lawsuit filed against them. I hope that the family gets millions!!!!
Dr. Richey I'm a white woman and it sickens me to see such horrible racism. I enjoy watching your channel. It's so enlightening. I'm ashamed that I haven't been more involved. The "nurse" should be sued for what she did or should I say didn't do. She is so incompetent she should have her license for good.
As a medical professional, I see this more often than most. These school nurses are pretty “not smart”; she needs to be fired and license revoked.

I agree with him. We moved to Connecticut and saw difference doctors. My little one has autism and was treated like an outcast. He wasn't getting the therapeutic he needed. They called us every day to come pick him up from school, because he would cried when he was not being treated right. We saw doctors due to him constantly being sick for months. We recently found a black doctor that is now doing the necessary things to link my son to autism and therapeutic services. This doctor did an exam on my son and diagnosed him allergies and asthma. Now he's getting much better. Parents do your homework on school before enrolling your child.
Was she reported to the Board of Nursing? I sure hope so.
It is very possible that the nurse is just incompetent.
Poor kiddo. OMG, I hope he'll be OK. As a mother, my heart breaks for his mom and for the kiddo. I truly hopes the school/city plans to pay for all his medical bills

Whats the problem on calling 911? It doesn't cost the school one thin dime to make call.
Me as a parent I would have called 911 while on my way to the school, after that it’s suing time
I'm sorry, while I know a stroke is unusual in a 17 year old, but if he has stroke like symptoms call an ambulance just to be safe. I mean aneurisms and strokes are completely random
This is despicable! Weather the students is black, white, purple or green this Nurse should be FIRED!!! And as for the Superintendent well… Intensionally lying to parents in regards to the information put forward of the medical emergency?!?! Glad she was exposed for her deceit!!!
Sue the school and fire the nurse…
That nurse should be reported to the nursing board, how disgraceful
Charges should be filed. As a medic, I would be fired if I dropped the ball in this situation. It should be NO different for a school nurse OR staff member. This poor kid may have had his life changed forever by the nurse's incompetence.
Numb was the key word there. You hear that word, you think heart attack or stroke.
