Essay

You are the administrator on call when you receive a text from one of your employees that she believes her ex-husband is stalking her and is lurking around the outside of the hospital, waiting for her to go to her car at the end of shift. She texts you because her husband used to work at the hospital as a security guard and all of his buddies are on his side of the divorce. You have heard about this situation through HR because it was an ugly divorce and her ex-showed up unannounced and threatened her. The hospital placed a restraining order against him. She also reports that he has been leaving notes on her windshield, calling and texting her 20 times a day. She is afraid to leave the hospital. What should you do?
