Fired Nurse Wins Arbitration Against Sunrise Hospital

Posted: Updated:

LAS VEGAS -- An arbitrator has ruled that a neonatal nurse should get her job back, more than 18 months after she was fired during an investigation into a baby's death.

According to the Service Employees International Union Local 1107, the arbitrator ruled in favor of Sharon Ochoa-Reyes and against her former employer Sunrise Hospital.

Ochoa-Reyes did file a lawsuit against the hospital seeking damages. She, along with fellow nurse Jessica Rice, were accused of intentionally interfering with medical equipment in the hospital's neo-natal intensive care unit.
