[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a couple hours behind but watching the audio of Brendan going to hospital. Doctor says "your wife has died." I assume bluntness by the doctor is the right approach so people can process and understand the news. In a general situation however is it normal for the doctor/officer to stick to their roles and be fairly silent while someone processes the loss of their spouse or do you think they were treading carefully here because it was a crime scene?[/quote] Yes, doctors generally will stick to the medical facts (hopefully presented in a compassionate tone) and there are other hospital employees who come and help with the grief aspect. Although the doctors of course will usually stay as long as the family wants, to answer questions about what happened. If the family member isn't asking any, then yeah, the doctor will probably leave it to the social worker/ chaplain/etc at some point. [/quote]
