OHSU Doernbecher Hospital has an exceptional reputation here in the Northwest. In looking over this article, it certainly seems as if they have responded appropriately to this man's sick actions. It's awfully scary to think that he was working with children in the ICU...where children are extremely vulnerable.
Let's keep our fingers crossed.

"...Corbitt resigned Feb. 10. On Friday, OHSU sent 10,000 letters to families of patients who may have had contact with Corbitt, alerting them to the investigation and his arrest...."
