Thanks, I just thought of another scenario, What if a patients family does not feel the patient was treated fairly, meaning not being admitted through the ER until the third visit. What advise do you give them? There was reason to admit on the second and third visits IMO.
I'm sure this has or is being discussed somewhere, if it is just point me in that direction. What do nurses do when they have different opinions about treatment of patients? or conflicts with ER physicians about whether or not the patient should have been admitted? Should you keep your mouth shut? what if a patients get worse?
