Patient’s wife is very angry that you are not treating her husband well. She was told that he would go home today and she drove three hours to pick him up and he is not ready. Patient’s wife is yelling and threating to sue you and the hospital. “You are all incompetent and even the food here is bad it’s making his mouth feel numb and everything tastes like rust.” I am taking home now and started to pack up his belongings and getting the patient dressed. When you try to stop her, she says if you come near her, she’ll punch you in the face.
