“I Can No Longer Defend My Hospital”: Dallas Nurse Says Texas Health Presbyterian Unprepared for Ebola
"A Dallas nurse who cared for a co-worker who contracted the Ebola virus at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital said the facility was unprepared to fight the disease and she would “do anything” to avoid being treated there if she were ever to fall ill with the potentially deadly virus.
“I can no longer defend my hospital,” Briana Aguirre said Thursday on NBC's “Today" show.

Aguirre claims that before Thomas Eric Duncan arrived at Texas Health Presbyterian nursing staff had not been trained in how to treat an Ebola patient beyond being offered an “optional seminar.”
“We never talked about Ebola and we probably should have,” Aguirre said, adding that staff was “never told what to look for.”
