No, your demanding yells of "nurse, nurse" will not endear you to me. In fact, I will be more likely to avoid you altogether.
I conclude that people perceive age differently after being called a little girl by one of my patients. However, should I be flattered?
Yes doctor, if the patient is sedated to the point that they are not responsive to verbal stimuli during your visit, the risperidone dose should be reduced.
Things might be too busy....
I had an anxious man waiting out in the hallway. "Is it ok that I stand here, I'm not in your way am I?" he asked. "That's fine, you can stand or sit there for as long as you'd like" I reassured him. One of my other patients, an elderly female, piped up and said "or you can drop dead there."
