Hey! There is a very big difference between someone with suicidal thought or is thinking of suicide and someone who has suicidal/ harmful actions and has the willpower to actually commit suicide. Someone who is thinking about suicide needs immediate help, trained physciatric professionals know how to help someone with thoughts of that. You should never bargain with someone thinking or taking actions towards suicide. It can make their conditions worse and endanger them. They need immediate help from a professional. If you have suicidal thoughts please get help and reach out to anyone. ( Including me) I wish you well health and positive energy and thoughts ! :) - Aspen
I think that was right of the Nurse to do so because the person in the accident was exposed to someone whose blood was HIV positive, and so now they might have it too.
I would have consulted with the patient about if it was okay to let the other person know that they could now be infected with HIV and if the HIV positive patient said it was fine I would go back and tell the other patient.
hope that helps :)
