No the Prozac lick needs to be in the doctors lounge along with a xanax water cooler.
I had posted some were in here about the cardiologist that grabbed the nurse by the throat, The nurse has been trying for a long time to get him prosecuted but no one will touch it.
I have worked in hospitals where doctors were allowed to get away with many abuses, and I have worked in hospitals where they weren't allowed to abuse the staff at all. It is wonderful when the management cares enough to support their staff.
June 6, 1999: Emergency Department Nurse Verbally Abused, Physician History Well Documented
Gordon v. Lewiston Hospital, 714 A.2d 539 – PA (1998)
Official tolerance for verbal abuse and sexual harassment is approaching zero. It is clear that both are still prevalent in healthcare settings today. Enforcing and reporting instances of abuse are critical to an end being put to the situation. In this case, a physician had a "history" of verbal abuse in the facility involved. It was the documentation of previous events that made formal action and administration of a suspension feasible.

This is a related case I reviewed a while back. True story of a nurse getting fed-up and taking a doctor to court. It does happen once in a while.

It's not just the fact that management did not support the nurse, The prosecuting attorney would not take the case. The nurse attempted civil charges agenst the Dr. and there were not takers. I was 5 feet away when this happened. What is the problem with our system.
