just wondering what others thought about this- an RN on a psychiatric ward during handover on 2 occasions has reported that she “slipped” a PRN into patients medications, is this a serious breach of patient autonomy? no one in the handover flinched, not the 2 consultants or the NUM, in fact a lot of the clinicians there thought this was funny. There were also a couple of medical students in the room. is there something wrong with me! I find this incredibly unethical. can t imagine it happen rob a Gen Med ward and getting away with it. I m one of the Registrars.
