He should never have attacked the nurse. That is a public hospital and they are always overwhelmed. Now, even as the patient lies in the ward, he won't get away with the assault. He ought to be incarcerated. But knowing them, he will "wai" and "offer his apologies" and will expect to be forgiven. Make this case a real example of really protecting nurses in critical situations. Otherwise, there eill not be any nurses at the hospitals; they will all become patients themselves.
