RaDonda Vaught Speaker Biography


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 firsthand 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.

RaDonda Vaught will share her profoundly personal story. Ms. Vaught’s case made headlines in March 2022 when a jury found her guilty of criminally negligent homicide and gross neglect of an impaired adult in the death of a patient to whom she accidentally gave the wrong medication.

“We had the privilege of hosting RaDonda for an impactful session that addressed Patient Safety and Fundamentals of Care at the bedside. Her ability to approach such a complex issue with empathy, depth, and practical insights was truly commendable. RaDonda created a space where our team felt seen, understood, and supported—providing tools that resonated with both our personal and professional lives. She handled the sensitivity of the subject with the utmost respect, while also offering actionable steps that empowered our staff to take proactive measures. Feedback from attendees has been overwhelmingly positive; many noted feeling a renewed sense of purpose and resilience. We’re grateful for RaDonda's commitment to advancing conversations that are essential to our well-being and the quality of care we deliver. We highly recommend her to any organization seeking to foster understanding and positive change.”
