Drunks Make Life Hell For Nurses

Staff at Royal Blackburn are now facing abuse from drunk patients on a daily basis. It used to be a problem on Friday and Saturday nights but it appears to be an everyday occurence now. Surely our nurses and doctors deserve more respect than this??? I find it disgusting that the very people who are trying to help get abused in this way. My opinion is that the abusive patients should be ejected from the premises without treatment. What do you think?

Totally agree, as would most ordinary people with a modicum of common sense. Sadly, it'd probably be against their "human rights" and there'd be plenty of human rights lawyers (the fragrant Cherie springs to mind) waiting to fight their case for them.

I think its a disgrace the way which they are treat by these idiots. They should be left to sober up before being treated me thinks (unless obviously it is life threatening) They should not have to put up with any kind of abuse and the person dishing out the abuse should be spending time in the cells for there actions

Should be turfed out without treatment.
I had to go to A&E a few month back in the early hours, was shocked to find they now have security guards on duty at the hospital, shouldn't be needed in places like this but seeing tonights Telegraph you can see why

My wife worked in A&E reception at the Infirmary from 1982 to 1988 and the only people to look after security were the porters.
Any trouble they rang the police....then they came straight away.

Re: Drunks Make Life Hell For Nurses

I agree tottally that they should be turned away untreated, the Human Rights of the nurses are more important than those of the drunks.

However, I want to know more about these drunks: What age groups are they - mainly ?

What gender are they? What race.

These are important points that need answering

No there is'nt Bernie, thats what the staff are complaing about.
There should be a permanent police presence and sod the expense.
Security Staff have got to be very careful that they don't overstep what they are there to do.........a policeman has powers of arrest...they don't.

Just goes to show how many I have seen whilst up there, really thought they were there all the time. It isn't just in casualty though have been in the Medical Assessment Unit and the police have had to be brought in
