At around 3:00 a.m. on July 25, 2014, a female patient was admitted to Department A9, Bach Mai Hospital for emergency treatment in a state of agitation and emotional instability. The patient also had abdominal pain of unknown cause.

As soon as the patient was admitted to the hospital, the doctors prescribed painkillers and continued monitoring. Afterwards, the patient continued to have abdominal pain, so they prescribed temporary sleeping pills for monitoring.

However, dissatisfied with the doctor's treatment, the patient's husband cursed and beat the doctors and nurses while they were working. Among those attacked was a pregnant nurse who was close to giving birth.

3. Doctor stabbed to death in hospital

In the early morning of August 16, 2011, the surgery department of Vu Thu District General Hospital (Thai Binh) received patient Nguyen Van Hung, 20 years old, from Hoa Binh Commune, Vu Thu District, in a state of no pulse, unmeasurable blood pressure, gasping for breath, cold hands and feet... Also accompanying the patient were his mother and younger brother, Nguyen Van Dung, 19 years old.

When this patient was admitted to the hospital, his family members vandalized the hospital and threatened the doctors who were performing emergency treatment. After receiving emergency treatment, the patient did not survive.

While the doctors were explaining to the family, the patient's younger brother came in and pulled out a knife and stabbed Dr. Pham Duc Giau in the stomach, killing him. He also seriously injured Dr. Hoan, who also worked in the emergency resuscitation department of Vu Thu Hospital.

On the afternoon of June 17, 2017, Dr. Ph.Đ.V., working at the Traditional Medicine Department of the Vietnam Sports Hospital, was assaulted by some strangers at the hospital gate. Afterwards, these people continued to take this doctor into the hospital and forced him to kneel down and apologize. The incident happened so quickly that the security forces did not have time to react.

After 2 days of being assaulted, Dr. Ph.Đ.V's health has gradually recovered. However, according to the diagnosis, Dr. V. suffered spinal cord damage, and the cervical disc was also damaged, so he still had to lie still, with immobilization devices so that doctors could continue to treat and monitor him.

The cause of the incident may have been because the patient's family was upset about the diagnosis of the 5-year-old child's elbow injury by Dr. V., so they stormed into the hospital, assaulted him, and forced him to kneel and apologize right there at the hospital.

5. Teacher stormed into medical station and seriously injured doctor
