First of all that is not really relevant. What is important is the allegation of asault. Why do we specialize in majoring in minors
I asked for a definition of admission? What exactly is "admission"

Different Hospitals have their procedures and protocol. Private Hospitals have a different approach to public ones Though a large number of what we call "hospitals" in Nigeria do not merit the name
There was no rule wriiten on the tablets of Stone that Moses brought with him following his meeting with God Almighty about admission to hospital

Whatever the case how is any of that a justification for assault

thedondada:


Guy you asked a question and I answered. You raised the point not me. I haven't seen anyone who agreed that the nurse should be assaulted for admitting a patient. You said what makes the nurse bold to admit a patient on her own.

asuustrike2009:
am not refering to you but the medical doctor

aribisala0:


I asked a question? Was it you I asked? What was the context of the question? You just inserted yourself and started talking tangentially

Please do not quote me out of context . I did not ask what makes the nurse bold to admit a patient on her own. That is a very different syntax from what I asked. What is "bold" about a nurse admitting a patient Theydo not mean the same thing
I am not here to give English lessons but the two do not mean the same thing

Good if we agree that the nurse should not be assaulted let us stick to that. The only reason for all this nonsense about who can admit is to suggest that there can be justification for assault. This is not the time or place to be talking about admission and boldness to admit

aribisala0:


Define "admission"

What does it actually mean to "admit" a patient?
Why can't a nurse admit a patient without a doctor's input? What is "bold" about that.
There is no universal rule that forbids nurses admitting patients it all depends on the hospital what their rules are

thedondada:


Here's you.

According to information the nurse doesn't admit the patient without the doctors input and I asked clarification.

You may clarify for us why a nurse can admit without the doctors input. We learn everyday.

thedondada:


Go back and see tour first comment on this thread and whom you quoted.

The original post said the doctor assaulted the nurse because she admitted a patient. That gives the impression that she couldn't admit the patient based on her decision alone.

Hence I asked why was she bold enough to do that.

You said what is admission and what is bold about a nurse admitting a patient. ( here's where you are playing with english).

I responded and here we are.

Honestly I don't need you to give me English lessons. Let's stick to the point of assault and not smarty pants

aribisala0:




They are both adult professionals governed by ethics or rules. There is no place for assault no matter what.

No ifs, no buts no explanations.
With regard to the claim that she had no business admitting that is debatable

What is the definition of "admission"

When a patient is seen at A&E have they been "admitted"
First you say the facts are not available but you have concluded that she "admitted a patient" based on what?

Even if she admiited . Why does she have no business admitting based on the rules of that hospital or a WHO agreement that nurses cannot admit?

You say it is not her duty to admit ?? Again this needs clarification because this is the sort of nonsense I hear from Nigerian doctors.

There are many many World class hospitals where doctors have no gatekeeper function. Rather admission s controlled by a Bed Manager usually a senior Nurse. The best the doctor can do f they consider admission inappropriate is to discharge and then discuss at service improvement meetings not flogging the nurse

aribisala0:
The issue here is asault and court case not silly dialogue about admission.
Honestly all that is relevant is that there was a work based misunderstanding and rather than pursue civilized resolution he chose to act like a boxer. Why are we getting into the details of the who can admit ? You talk about "impression"

The only impression here from you is that somehow we need to better understand admission protocol in order to resolve this matter. That she deserved what happened to her?
You really are preposterous. Saying she was "BOLD" so in other words such boldness needs to be smacked down?

Even if she was not supposed to admit and she did why is that "bold" could it not have been an error or miscommunication? Why call it BOLDNESS? That shows bias on your side

thedondada:


I think you are the one who's biased.

My first statement was why the guy reacted like that when obviously other ways to resolve the issue were available.

I said the nurse was bold because from information I garnered it's not in her job description . You tried playing with grammar on the admission word.

He shouldn't have and does not have the right to hit a staff, woman or anybody.

Modified

Just saw your first post.

Cool

Thermodynamics:
Nigerians are power drunk, that's how they behave like a God when they are given one small post with no one to query them.

Typical Black man nature.

aribisala0:


Whether it is her job description is not relevant to the immediate matter.

Focusing on that is wrong because it suggests that somehow she deserved what she got because she was bold enough to go beyond her bounds

That is perverse

thedondada:


I think you are still missing my point. The guy was WRONG!!! No matter the provocation.

I never said she deserved it because she went beyond her duties required which in my opinion should be applauded . I only tried to reason out the cause and effect of the matter. The outcome remains the same. It's assault.

The cause and effect must be understood despite outcomes. Someone said a male nurse would have smashed his teeth in.

Now cause and effect....

That's still wrong. Don't misunderstand my point.

sirzent:
THIS IS NIGERIA

thedondada:
For shizzy. This story has more to it.

Why not refer the patient

Why assault the nurse

He's not the owner of the hospital ? Why was he angry to the extent of assaulting a female staff. Why tell your staff to kneel down. ( an adult )


Also why did the nurse admit a patient without the doctors input. What gave her such boldness?

Finally he shouldn't have assaulted her, just report to the owner of the hospital. Now he's up the creek without a paddle.



P.s bloggers would say that Dr assaults nurse for refusing sexual advances. See one below
