Nurse Gupta, being assigned to assist Dr. Singh on a daily basis, reports directly to Dr. Singh. The tasks that Nurse Gupta performs are likely to be directed by Dr. Singh as part of patient care within the pediatrics department. As the head of the pediatrics department, Dr. Patel oversees the operations and personnel within the department, which includes both the pediatricians and the nursing staff. Therefore, Dr. Patel has the authority to reassign Nurse Gupta to a different doctor if deemed necessary for the department's functioning or to meet the hospital's needs. The hierarchical structure in the hospital gives department heads like Dr. Patel the management rights over all subordinate staff within their department.
In a hospital, Dr. Patel is the head of the pediatrics department. Dr. Singh is a pediatrician within the same department. Nurse Gupta is assigned to assist Dr. Singh on a daily basis. Whom does Nurse Gupta report to directly, and can Dr. Patel assign Nurse Gupta to a different doctor?
