This brings back not-so-fond memories of my days at the psychiatric hospital. A female patient with borderline personality disorder who was a 1:1 observation for suicide risk had asked to take a shower and was granted permission. Once she came out of the shower she was a bloody mess.
She apparently sneaked a men's razor into the shower and started cutting.

Your walking down a hall a patient previously on 1:1 for self harm is found by you picking at her open wounds caused by themselves.
The patient is non-verbal and is not responding to ques to stop. When you attempt to stop her by removing her hand she continues to do so. Pt is cognitive, yet severely depressed.
