“The dismissal of the plaintiff was adopted as a measure against her as a result of all the efforts and acts through which she expressed the needs and consequences for the unit, its nurses, Tens, and other officials, in addition to the poor attention to highly complex patients, evidently violating their freedom of expression, a constitutionally guaranteed right,” the ruling indicates.
In addition, the court ordered to train their managers “on fundamental rights in the workplace.”
