Got woken up at 5am because of a code gray. A patient became aggressive because he wanted his doona back. He refused to get back into bed without a doona. When we arrived, he was standing outside his room saying, "My doona please, my doona please."

Of course at the beginning, we were all nice to him, trying to convince him to go back to bed, cajoling him to listen. The nurse offered him more blankets. The security guard offered to call his nursing home if he got back into bed first. Of course he wouldn't listen and all he would say is, "My doona please." In the end we got fed up with him and told him, "Look, this is a hospital, not a hotel and we don't have to follow your orders. You can either stay in this seat outside your room or you can go back into your room and use the extra blankets the nurse had given you already." Then we left.

3 more days! 3 more and then no more agitated patients that I can't sedate!
