venting time
I was working last night and had a 5 year old brought in by ems her mom is a known drug seeker. I spend time with the child to do exam, and she states her mom locks her in her room,for hours at a time and doesn't feed her. she only eats when she eats at school. So I call child sevices the local pd. I give the patient food and her meds,etc. and child services and the police show up and the mom gets in my face cursing me out. I just did my job. I had to vent.

I agree but she comes in after the injections due to breakthrough pain. I am wondering if I should refer her to someone else I wrote her an rx for diclofenac to help with her pain and she seemed satisfied maybe it will help. but I will most likely see her next Tuesday back in the er. she also only comes on the days I work
