Scott Montgomery Case Study Answers

Improved Essays
Scott Montgomery had finally finished his degree after eight years of part time work and hours of study. It hadn’t been easy for him, but he’d finally succeeded. And now he was standing outside Bancroft’s A&E about to start his first shift as a fully qualified nurse.
As Scott walked in he was met by the head of A&E Dr. Coy a man who could get Scott’s heart racing for all the wrong or maybe right reasons, telling him he was late.
A great start.
Lenard Coy was the utmost professional when he walked the corridors of his A&E and his new nurse was not going to change even if he was edible. Dr. Coy was not going to be affected by his unlikely feelings for this young man.
Scott thought he was making headway with his doctor until someone demanded he go to the OR instead. Dr,Coy was not happy, no one pinched his nurses especially ‘Scotty’ and only an idiot got a man to work in an area he was not trained for.

It didn’t help when children kept inserting various objects in their facial orifices and then there was Mr. Rumbold and his toes, but Scott was an eternal optimist and he was determined to get beneath the surface of his very professional doctor.
You could never say life in A&E was dull especially when romance was in the oxygen

I personally connect to this article as I recall several instances where my mother, grandmother and I were involved with medical personnel who we felt treated us negatively due either to biases, microagression, lack of cultural humility/sensitivity,…
