Post Body

I work in an A&E department

Theres a new F2 who was looking after a patient with MH issues. Patent decided to leave but the F2 was concerned. F2 basically went after her to the bus stop within the hospital but patient left in a bus.

F2 comes back and the nurse insensitively tells her "why didn’t you DRAG HER OUT OF THE BUS". The F2 now is crying and their shift was ruined.

PSA every new doctors F1&F2 rotating into a difficult department: When this happens Call security and inform nurse incharge. Dont chase after a patient you could be putting yourself in danger.

Addendum Also document who you escalated it to so theres evidence
