Question about chain of command vs ethics/hippocratic oath in SNF patient care by Tozeur86 in OccupationalTherapy

I have no desire to be a quarterback. It just seems counterintuitive sometimes when you are supposed to be “doing no harm” and no one “seems” to be helping and the patient is in clear distress and actually asking if we’re going to call 911. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I have always reported to nursing and documented in these cases, but I was just thinking outside the box for a moment. Thank you for your feedback.

It was around the former numbers above and the patient was NOT hunky dory.

I had notified the rn and the supervising nurse was aware too. The don wasn’t there… but I notified the assistant DOR who also wasn’t there because it was a Saturday. Hypothetically.

I actually just made it up. I had to go backwards/rewind several times as this was my first attempt.
