Patient comes in and is psychotic. Breaks one of our staff member's legs. So he is on a strict protocol (he must stay in his room and a staff member is assigned to him around the clock until it is determined that he is safe). Well, he broke a grown man's leg so the logical thing to do is pull a 1:1 staff encounter with a short skinny girl like me! It ended up being fine, but I always questioned that decision. That guy could have broken me in half faster than I'd be able to call for help.
