Griffiths discharged patient from psychicatric hospital who was in a severe psycosis without informing a family member. Patient had a serious motor accident two days later and could have lost her life or somebody els could have lost their life. Patient was taken back to psychicatric hospital imediatly after accident and Griffiths contacted mother telephonicaly and admited to mother that patient was in a severe psycosis and should be certified. Upon questioning, Griffith said that patient was refusing anti psycotic medication for the last week prior to accident and that he had no choice but to discharge her.

Griffith was in my opion totaly irresponsibe as he could have contacted a family member informing them of the seriousness of the situation before discharging the patient.
In my opion Griffith endangered the life of the patient and the lives of the public, as the patient was driving a vechicle on public roads. The vechile was a total rightoff.
