A Thai nurse at Aranya Prathet Hospital in Sa Kaeo donned a monk robe to prevent a psychiatric patient from escaping to make merit with a monk.

 

The nurse’s heartwarming act caught the attention of Thai netizens after his picture was shared on Facebook by another Thai man.

 

The man said in the caption…

“The nurses and assistant nurses on the seventh floor of Aranya Prathet Hospital are everything to the patients. A psychiatric patient likes to make merit and always wants to escape from the hospital to cook food for monks. This male nurse had to dress up as a monk to make the patient stay. What a dedication!”

Subsequently, the Facebook user, who originally shared the post, disclosed in the comments section that he was, in fact, the nurse depicted in the image. He revealed that assuming various roles was a part of his job, especially when dealing with patients.

???? Just how many role playing outfits does this 'NURSE' have, is he really a nurse or an inmate of that ward.
