Concept explainers
Case summary:
Person X had worked in the emergency department of a reputed hospital. The hospital had a good relationship with the patients, but one incident made the life of the patient at risk.
An 8-year-old child patient called Person E came with a right forearm fracture. The ED protocol states that a person must always be there with the child to take care because of diazepam sedation. The assisted doctor was working for more than 14 hours, so he asked the nurse to do the procedures. As the nurse was a new graduate, she was not comfortable in giving drugs and was also not at ease to speak up to the doctor.
However, she went and gave the dose against the protocol. The action of the nurse undermined the safety of the patient and this lead to the act of negligence by both the doctor and the nurse.
Characters in the case:
- Person E: The patient
- Person X: The employee of the hospital
- Doctor
- Nurse
To discuss:
The essential information that must be available in Person E’s electronic record to support safe patient care and coordination of care.
