I don't get it. With patterns of morbidity and mortality in hospitals,
they look for common factors, so these patterns that led to death should
have been seen in babies she didn't care for.

Also, what's the explanation for her being on shift and failing to
report the substandard care even if she herself wasn't committing
malpractice?
