Nurse’s Self-Care Instructions Were Not "Emotional Distress"
February 10, 2009: Originally in this space we reported on the
Georgia Court of Appeals case of Canziani v. Visiting Nurses
Health Systems, Inc., 271 Ga. App. 677, 610 S.E.2d 660 (2005).
Recently we heard from the plaintiff in that litigation, Christina
Canziani. Ms. Canziani insisted that our article was slanderous, and she
told us that she intended to bring an action in the Georgia courts if we
did not remove the article and apologize.
We are sorry, Ms. Canziani, if you felt that the article in any way
impugned you. It was not, and is not, our purpose to pass any sort of
judgment as to anyone's choices or motivations. We merely attempt to
report on what has transpired as it relates to the group of people we
represent and for whom we advocate. Rather than offending you, we have
chosen to simply remove the original article.
