@doctorcaldwell @katemasters67 @elinlowri 'When we know pt is dying'. That's the concern. What controls are in place to validate such views?

@C7RKY@katemasters67@elinlowri I greatly value expert opinion of senior nurses who usually know well in advance of Doctors that pt dying -
@doctorcaldwell@katemasters67@elinlowri I'm sure it's possible to guess. But let's not kid ourselves that it's anything more than a guess. -
@C7RKY@katemasters67@elinlowri no profession ever gets everything 100% correct but expertise from years of experience helps. -
@doctorcaldwell@katemasters67@elinlowri This is where you'll find resistance from pts tho.Where tired docs can end your life in a decision -
@C7RKY@katemasters67@elinlowri I work in patient safety too. Sadly many more life threatening Human Errors than misjudgements about dying -
@doctorcaldwell@katemasters67@elinlowri Unf, I'm familiar w/ errors. I accept error/risk, but not if I didn't consent another's judgement -
@C7RKY Trust is the essential foundation of clinical care. You have to find a clinical team you can trust. -
@doctorcaldwell Interesting point. I'll be honest, I'll never trust a doctor 'by default' ever again. Never. Where does that leave me? - 7 more replies
