I think it is unprofessional ti call some one babe.
I'm training to be a mh professional and we have a computer system which we use for writing notes on and when you click on a patients name it will give you their preferred name. For example David prefers to be called Dave. That, and their full name is all a professional should use.
It surprised me that staff get away with it. But i guess if no patients complain about it then no one will see a problem.
If it bothers you you are well within your rights to make a formal complaint.
