The operator of a Dallas, Texas hospital has denied allegations of poor training and seeks dismissal of a lawsuit filed by a nurse who contracted Ebola while caring for a patient.
The Dallas Morning News reported Texas Health Resources filed a response Friday to the March 2 lawsuit by Nina Pham.
Pham, who remains employed at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas but hasn’t returned to work, seeks unspecified damages.
A man visiting Dallas from Liberia, Thomas Eric Duncan, died Oct. 8 at the hospital. Duncan was the first U.S. patient diagnosed with Ebola. Pham and another nurse caring for Duncan contracted Ebola, but survived.
The newspaper reports the parent company denies Pham’s allegations of insufficient training and preparation, plus denies her privacy was violated when she became a patient.
