    On Your Mark: Get the Fundamentals to Build Your Business

    Turning the Hot Seat into a Chill Seat

    By Pat Iyer MSN RN LNCC, David Cohen Esq, Certified Civil Trial Attorney, and Elliot Kolodny Esq.

    How comfortable are you on a hot seat? Does the idea of being cross-examined thrill you or give you the shivers? The witness box is a hot seat. How well the nursing expert witness comes across can make or break the attorney’s case. Skillful answers to deposition questions display the expert’s confidence, credibility, and expertise.

    Whether you are an expert, prepare witnesses to be experts, or know you never want to be an expert, you’ll gain from this session.

    In this session, expert witness Pat Iyer and plaintiff attorneys David Cohen and Elliot Kolodny will dive into the strategies used during cross-examination of experts.

    Charles Cullen RN: Tracing the Nurse Killer’s Steps

    By Pat Iyer MSN RN LNCC and Dr. Kathleen Ashton

    You’ve got dead patients and a confessed killer. What does it take to determine which patients Charles Cullen RN killed? The subject of the book The Good Nurse, serial killer Charles Cullen worked in New Jersey and Pennsylvania as a critical care nurse.

    In this session, you will hear from two nurses involved in this case. Pat Iyer worked with one of the prosecutors to investigate deaths and will share how she went about linking Charles with deaths.

    Kathleen Ashton worked with plaintiff attorneys interested in working on a series of related cases involving the injury or death of patients who had all been cared for Charles Cullen. Thus began her involvement with the patients who had been under the care of one of the most notorious nurse serial killers in New Jersey history.

    Presenting the Burn Case in a Powerful Way

    By Samuel Davis Esq and Nancy Stuck MSN RN

    Carlos Gomez walked into the electrical closet and unwittingly set off an explosion that resulted in catastrophic burns.

    According to the American Burn Association (ABA) over 400,000 people seek care for burn injuries each year. The injuries and treatment go beyond the physical healing of the patient. Emotional and psychological impacts can be permanently disabling.

    In this session, you’ll discover:

    • How an experienced plaintiff attorney with a passion for representing burned clients marshaled the evidence to create a compelling story
    • Principles of the use of the visual evidence in presenting a case
    • How an expert fact witness/Rule 1006 nursing expert added a huge value to this case
    • The attorney must use visual evidence principles to make the points crucial to proving the case.
    • Powerful demonstrative evidence.
    • Discover the attorney’s perspective in handling the complexities of a severely burned plaintiff.

    The LNC role, as a fact witness in burn cases, has multiple levels. Like a foreign language interpreter, Expert Fact Witness Nancy Stuck translated the records from “medicalese” to a language both the attorney client and a jury would understand. “Translating” the chart tells the story of the patient and explain in detail what he endured; from over 170 procedures to struggles he faced at home with his new reality.
