I've been a respiratory therapist for 20 years and I have had patients who have tried and sometimes succeeded in disconnecting themselves from the ventilator. Even with restraints it happens because if you are determined to pull out your tube, you'll find a way. If the doctors think you are suicidal vs just confused from injury and drugs, then you can bet on a psych consult. I have seen something like this scenario before. It's tough on us healthcare professionals too. I can sympathize with this man. His quality of life is definitely going to be hard. I've asked myself many times what would I do if I was going through this when I am treating patients. Most people in healthcare do and if you haven't heard this before, most doctors and healthcare professionals don't die in a hospital. They have made arrangements for themselves and their families if/when the time nears.
Sorry for the speech, this story just touched something in me.
Thank you for the story. Well done.
P.s. There is always a nurse just like this one in every hospital. It's usually the new nurse who hasn't been changed by the day after day of healthcare reality.
