So, anyone who's ever worked in an emergency room knows the suicidal/homicidal and the pysch patients pose a danger to self and staff. We have the great benefit of having our very own hospital police force and they excitedly run over when we call a code grey (hospital speak for agitated person) so they can sit on the sidelines and watch my dainty and/or PTSD laden staff can take-down patients. This fine gentleman must have been working a triple shift because he was more comatose than the patient. I can't imagine why he fell asleep; all my conversations with these types of patients are very enlightening and extremely entertaining.
