i know a few specials infact one is a police comunications officer who also works as a special for free in their spare time but if they had to woprk teh long hours nurses do they have said they wouldnt do teh specials job as it would be too demanding and leave them with not only hardly any social life but too tired to do tehir paid job propperly |

How many hours a week do nurses work? Must be some part time ones as well as full time. Working irregular hours could be an advantage though as they could do a couple of hours at the end of their shift.
I don't agree its a good idea because I don't like specials, I think many are used with suggestions they might get a real PC job by volunteering first. The hospital management are responsible for the health and safety of the hospital staff. If staff are being injured/threatened etc at work it is the fault of the management for not protecting those staff. If it is as serious a problem as suggested (and I think it is) why are staff not reporting it to the HSE to investigate? |
So there you are in an ordinary job putting in you 40 hours a week and your boss comes along and tells you, you will have to do an extra 4 hours a week because he no longer uses any security guards to protect the premises.
What would be your reaction? Would it be a two word sentence, the second word of which would probably be OFF! Well I wouldn't blame hospital staff if that was their reaction. It's all very well, claiming we should have a big society, but 10 people offering 4 hours a week means the management can cut the real security staff by one. These guys surely have a right to be employed to do their job, without the threat of co-workers forcing them onto the dole? |

If they are directly employed are they also being asked to give up their spare time to do their own jobs on a voluntary basis? Seems crazy if they are. |

Hospitals round my way have used private security for years and maybe that is the same all over the country..I've no idea what sort of training these security "guards" have but to expect nurses or basic staff (part time or whatever) to have a days training and then tackle nutters in thier spare time is silly and based on a cost cutting idealogy that usually ends up costing more.

My reaction would be no thank you, I do enough free volunteering work as it is. My company is asking for volunteers to work with local charities so I may do some volunteer days if they are in an area that interests me. |
