He walked into her room, told her she was too fat and if she didn't lose weight it would kill her. He then walked out...Hard news for patient, but total truth. He was not know to pussy foot around a problem. He charted exactly what he told her....patient charts are legal documents. And once something is written it cannot be white out or crossed off...not even on nurse notes..
If you are charting progress or problems with a patient, you can draw a line through what is written, but it must still be readable and then you have to initial it...
This doctor was a dozie..
Maybe the NZ doctor also works on sheep. Sheepherders probably pay better than NZ Nationalized health.
Dozy is a nice way of putting it. He is an enemy within.
