Asked by 739prmb35 to Riverside Surgery, Kerry - HCA, Hampton Surgery on 16 Jan 2019.
Question: if you are in trouble and ur a nurse will you need to have another nurse assist you (like if you snap your leg off) or could you do it yourself?

In my surgery everyone comes and helps if we have an emergency like the situation you describe. No ones leg has fallen off in my twenty years in primary care though.

As professionals we are taught to work effectively as a team. In emergency situations we must work together to achieve the best outcome for an individual, it is very rare that a persons leg falls off without trauma such as car crash.

One of the most important things in working in the NHS is knowing when you need help and being able to ask for it. If someone in the NHS snapped their leg off they may be tempted to deal with it on their own but all the people around them would realise they needed support and offer some crutches and a new leg.
