Answer Example
"I recently experienced a conflict with a patient. They were upset about their service and aimed their anger directly at me. It was very public, as the patient was loud and visibly angry. I was able to keep my voice calm and asked them to step into a more private area to discuss a resolution. I gained their trust and assisted them through their issue."
