Patient runs out of money, runs out of insurance, fired from job, treatment appears futile, patient turns hostile............nothing is a CAUSE FOR DROPPING PATIENT. THAT IS THE WORST EVER THING A DOCTOR CAN DO( atleast on boards) . a hostile patient is still your patient. an angry and non-complaint is still your patient. you are not the one who gets to decide whether or not treatment is working, patient gets to decide!! his economic status, insurance, jobstatus noting should prevent you FROM DEDICATING YOUR SELF to patient, once you have accepted him as your patient.
thinn of mother THERESA , while answering questions on ethics, folks! you will be correct ALL THE TIME!!
