    Not even 48h ago. Well in the end I involuntarily admitted the offender to hospital.

    Worked on the ambulance. Basically got stopped by a member of the public and informed a guy acting strange in front of a shop. Had a look, got called a few very nasty slurs, called for police backup. Clearly the patient was of unsound mind, not orientated, etc. After some more talking the cops restrained him upon my advice and he got admitted to a somatic(normal) hospital. Whole trip was full of slurs towards everyone, even random passerbys.

    Somatic hospital checked him throughly and then transferred him to a psychiatric hospital.

      Ha, working in healthcare you get called every name and slur there is. Worst for me was emergency room and when I worked a specialised intoxication ward. You can really learn sonething and fill up your ‘alternative’ vocabulary.

      One time that stayed with me, was a patient calling me a ‘Dictator’. But it was acute psychiatry and most patients were there on court order, so I kinda was dictating what they could and couldn’t do.
