It’s not just the Wuhan Flu. One guy came out of a black out and decided he would try to break my daughter’s arm. She encouraged him. Great I’ll get to go home and be on workers comp and you’ll go to jail. He eased up. She then had him sign out AMA and called him a ride… it was the local sheriff who drove him to other custody

I am told that when I came out of general anesthesia after getting my wisdom teeth extracted, I tried to deck the attending nurse in post op. I don't personally remember it, but that's what I was told.

Ever since that point, I warn the anesthesiologist and staff about the experience so that they can have the opportunity to put restraints on when I come out of anesthesia.

Good for your daughter. I work in an ER. Let me tell you those nurses are angles. But give them a hard time and they will make your world a life of s**t.

In NJ at least assaulting, threatening or otherwise forcibly or other wise preventing any health care/or care facility worker is a felony and you will be arrested right there in the ER.

I've seen it happen.
