Selfie with needle and thread, after having sewn up the abdomen of a corpse, with a smiling look and a satisfied face.
Storm hits the head nurse of the Anatomy and Pathological Histology department of the Perrino hospital in Brindisi. The woman, says the Corriere, filled her social profile with shots that portray her at work in the morgue, with a surgeon's needle and suture tape, in the midst of autopsies and operations on bodies . Which are also immortalized.
A story that has been going on for months, at least since the beginning of May: «When I was little the seamstress told me (in dialect): “Long thread, crazy teacher. It all came true'", he wrote in support of one of the first shots shared on the web. And again: «He who works with his hands is a worker. Anyone who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. Anyone who works with his hands, with his head and with his heart is an artist."
In the hospital, obviously, everyone knows, also because he does little to hide it. But, apparently, there are no measures on the horizon. «The topic is quite slippery - says the president of the National Federation of Medical Associations, Filippo Anelli - and I can't say whether or not a head nurse is allowed to perform sutures on a body in the morgue. The fact remains that the photos taken with a smiling face in front of the corpse seem to me, however, to be an offense against the decorum of the nursing profession, as well as a gesture in very poor taste, for which the Order of Nurses could also initiate disciplinary proceedings. Perhaps the relatives of the deceased were also behind the door, despairing in pain."
«The matter must be framed within the scope of the protection of the decorum of the profession, of good taste, also because - observes Filippo Anelli - a medical act is not being carried out which involves diagnosis and therapy . Configuring the coordinator's actions as a medical act is difficult, also because she is operating on a corpse. However, it is certainly not nice for images of a body to be put on social media. Therefore one could argue that it would have been appropriate not to do so. This is, I repeat, an act in very poor taste."
