First of all I feel as though it is derogatory and damaging to the person's reputation. Especially if this person returns to this same hospital for an emergency. (All of this occurs over the course of about 4 days. )
A patient was admitted to a hospital for internal bleeding due to hemophilia. The patient had become distressed ,anemic & was very scared.
The doctor put in the charts a completely false statement about the patient , which is this" patient is acting "bizare" has been hospitalized in psychiatric hospitals for several mental illnesses. "
The doctor then proceeds to give the patient mental illness diagnoses.
The doctor also told the patient that she disagreed she could just leave the hospital and NEVER come back.
The patient leaves against medical advice still bleeding internally and losing blood.
In the charts it also states that the patient did not appear ill, though later it says the patient is anemic fevering, high pulse etc...?
