One thing for certain if she had been non Christian, we would be up to about page seventeen with irate, 'she should mind her own business posts by now!'.

Several. Mainly from American sects.

Or it may be better if our NHS had pre written scripts for talking to patients, in response to conversations, like our bank call centres in India have.

What a load of twoddle

I agree....The paramedic who referred to the patient as 'Love' was also lamblasted.
Politiclaly correct my arse...,.say what you mean and mean what you say..free speach is what we were brought up to.
If this lass looses her job because of this I think that her line manager should be ashamed and named.
There may be a few spelling mistakes in this post but I don't give a toss.:rolleyes:

Again, we don't know how strong she was coming on to this patient .. had been handing out prayer cards prior to this. Just imagine if she were handing out political campaigning leaflets and then asking "Can Peter rely on your vote then ?"

My daughter, when going out on community visits, would never impose this offer on a patient. She is far too good a medical professional to not put herself in the role of a spiritual saviour.

Think you have a daughter too in nursing don't you Royboy ? (sorry, if I am wrong, not sure).. perhaps you might ask her opinion on this.

However, if the nurse had been Muslim and had been suspended for offering to say prayers, I'd say Less is right. We'd be up to our eyes in "sack her/deport her/they're taking over" posts by now!
