What happens if you complain about psychiatrist and then cancel it..

Nurses Professionalism

Published

Sorry, I really need to know this, and this was the best section to post it in, though I know it doesn't match Perfectly..

So basically.. it's about psychiatrist\patient, though I am a student nurse but in that contest I was an outaptient for anxiety adhd (mild)

What happens if you complain about a doctor in psychiatry (psychiatric hospital, but outpatient, just for ADHD) and you only ever exchanged texts and emails though they were not about work, saying that he was leading you on (because he promised to call and was putting it off (I know sounds very silly)) And then cancel it the next day, do they still investigate? And does it matter that it was an outpatient or the hospital has the same basic rules for all patients and their doctors.

What do you think would be the most likely outcome in this scenario? I guess it's not a boundary violation just a crossing, plus if complaint was cancelled by patient, would there be any penalties on psychiatrist?

And btw this is taking place in Canada (took place)

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but are you saying you were going to date this guy? He said he was going to call and didn't and now you want to know if there's anything to be done?

I am so sorry you are experiencing this but this is something we cannot give advice.....As per the Terms of Service we cannot give legal advice.
