    HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Mr. Barua is a 42-year-old gentleman from Bangladesh who presents with chest tightness, shortness of breath, and tachycardia. Dr. J.K. McClain of cardiology is evaluating his heart condition. The patient has had the recent onset of hypomtesis. He was treated for tuberculosis in Bangladesh 15 years ago.

As an emergency care nurse at Jackson Memorial Hospital located in the downtown area of Miami Florida, you are exposed to every situation. During changed of shift, the nurse reported that a patient came with an open abdominal wound post an altercation. She also mentioned that he is a newly diagnosed HIV patient, and the primary doctor just informed him of his diagnosis. As we were making rounds, I realized that I knew the man, and his wife is my hairdresser. Like you, I manage to keep my professionalism and care for him. We were not friends, but I am sure he was worried that I would tell his wife, not knowing that would be an HIPA violation, and I could lose my license.…
