Ethical Scenario 9


You are a third year nursing student on a paediatric rotation. After the ward round, one of your long-term patients (Alison, 9 years old) confides in you that Dr Patin (Consultant Paediatrician) touched her inappropriately yesterday. Alison requests that you promise not to tell anyone about your discussion.
 
Outline what actions you would take in this scenario.
