KEYNOTE
RaDonda Vaught was the subject of one of the highest profile healthcare criminal
cases in recent years. She holds a BSN and a Certificate in Leadership from Western
Kentucky University. While working as a BSN prepared registered nurse, Mrs. Vaught
committed a medication error that ended the life of a patient in 2017.
She was charged under administrative law by the Tennessee Department of Health,
leading to the revocation of her nursing license by the Tennessee Board of Nursing in a
July 2021 hearing. Additionally, she was charged under criminal law and found guilty by
jury trial of two felony charges in March of 2022: Negligent Homicide, and Abuse of an
Impaired Adult, with placement on an Elder Abuse registry in the state of Tennessee.
Mrs. Vaught is uniquely qualified to speak first hand on the impact this sentinel event
has had on her life and her profession, along with the implications of the legal actions
that followed. A passionate advocate for safety and improvement, her story will be one
that is not easily forgotten.
