Nurses Demoted After Sander Acquittal at New Hampshire Hospital

In Goffstown New Hampshire two nurses who testified for Dr Hermann N Sander faced demotion to floor duty following his acquittal on a murder charge in a cancer patient death. Cecelia Smith was moved from head of the women s ward then resigned while Eileen Moncrieff was relieved then reinstated as head of the medical surgical ward. Superintendant of Nurses Marion Lemy said demotion stemmed from trust issues not testimony, with Smith claiming she was told she could not be trusted and faced unpleasant conditions. Moncrieff said little while Lemy noted she told all she knew before testifying and was later restored to supervisor.
