They tend to resent hospital staff who are trying to get quality documentation out of them. At present, if a doctor who has been criticized for a mistake in patient documentation erupts in anger, the people who are in the direct line of fire must take his rage on the cheek. They are not allowed to turn the situation around and make the doctor realize that his poor work habits may be contributing to the problem. That kind of behavior immediately marks knowledge workers as professional victims. And it has simply got to stop.
Many doctors like to intimidate people with their sense of self-importance.
But the way to deal with a bully is not by giving in to him. Instead, you push back and give him a taste of his own medicine. You intimidate him, humiliate him, and take away the power he thinks he holds over you. It may not sound pretty, but it works. Because many doctors have secretly been hoping to get caught.
