It is my homework.

I have not idea.

As a nurse, I think i will report the polician. fristly,i should conside the patient's beneficence and maleficence, the patient need do the mental health test. secondly,Nurses value safe practice and a safe working environment,I need consider all patients and staff safe, because the patient is a violent and very disburted man,or maybe he is culprit.
