Where did you get the transcripts? They should be shared in the public interest.

If a parent gives a medication to a child in hospital almost for sure a Doctor has said at some point in time ‘Make sure he always takes it and never misses it and gets it on time’
-
Exactly. Even if that advice came from their GP before admission. This debate that went on for days previously. Patients/parents follow doctors' orders. But if nobody makes it clear to us that one doctor's opinion trumps another whilst we're in hospital, how do we know that?
-
Common sense would lead one to ask first. A child who is sick and in the hospital will have different medical needs than a healthy outpatient, and the hospitalist's orders at least in the U.S. are universally understood to overrule the GP's outpatient orders.
-
We established quite clearly through open discussion previously that what appears obvious common sense to doctors, does not necessarily appear that way to patients. And if you want patients to behave a certain way, then it must be made clear.

But blaming a female African junior physician who was asked to oversee an unmanageable number of cases is fine, apparently.

Oh, please! Truly... exceptionally... bad. So say, the Crown Court and the High Court after accounting for all the facts surrounding her 22 errors. Facts we don't have full access to without a Crown Court transcript - not that you'd know it, looking around.pic.twitter.com/aurgw69k4F
