This happened last week at work... About 1500, I walk around the corner into the nurses' station and see all the nurses, the CNO and the asst. admin standing there. I asked what is going on and one of the nurses point to a man sitting in front of the station with a hospital gown and jeans on. She says that a few minutes earlier, he had walked up to the station and told the secretary that he was going to kill himself. He had walked out of the hospital across the street, came in the front doors (pass security:uhoh3:) and up to the third floor where we are. So she calls admin people and they were trying to figure out what to do. The CNO is on the phone with the house doc and the asst. admin is talking to the US with his back to the patient. I immediately went to the asst admin and asked him why this man isn't isolated away from us. He gets a "look" and asks me why. I tell him "Are you serious? This guy just walked in and said he's about to kill himself. He could very possibly have a weapon of some sort, he obviously has psych issues and this makes him a potential danger to us, our patients and visitors". He rolls his eyes and told me (very condescendingly) that the situation is under control, that I don't have anything to worry about. At that very moment, the house doc strolls off the elevator, sees the guy and says that the patient needed to be isolated before anything else was done. So he's taken to a vacant room and that's that. But before the asst admin gets on the elevator, he comes back up to the station and tells us all that we never had anything to worry about, blah blah blah. When he walked off, he made eye contact with me and gave me one of those "you stupid idiot looks" (which I returned). I haven't seen this POS since it happened, but I have a feeling he has it in for me now. He's only been here about 6 months, he's kind of youngish and still seems kind of insecure in his roll. I'm not the type to look for trouble, but I speak up for myself and my co-workers when nobody else will. Any advice? Thanks, guys...
