Nurse’s Lawsuit at Englewood Health Draws National Attention

Report of a Doctor’s Remarks

A workplace clash at Englewood Health in New Jersey became a national story after nurse Lexi Kuenzle filed a lawsuit. She claims surgeon Dr. Matthew Jung celebrated news of Charlie Kirk’s assassination by making inappropriate remarks. Kuenzle says she spoke up out of professional duty, questioning how such comments fit with medical ethics.

Suspension and Investigation

After she reported the incident, both Kuenzle and Dr. Jung were suspended while the hospital investigated. According to her lawsuit, she faced a suspension without pay. Englewood Health later stated that she was never fired, would not lose pay, and was reinstated.

Doctor’s Resignation

During the investigation, Dr. Jung resigned from his position. The hospital accepted his resignation, closing that chapter of the dispute.

Broader Debate

The case has fueled discussion about how politics intersect with professionalism in healthcare. While the lawsuit presents one side of the story, the incident highlights how deeply political divisions can reach—even into trusted medical institutions.
