Re: Where's my ambulance?

I think that you have hit the spot with that one Cashy.
I know the mental institutions were pretty dismal, but they were more secure than the current situation ever could be.

Re: Where's my ambulance?

In what context?

Re: Where's my ambulance?

This is essential because should an employee later suffer from ill health as a result of an incident at work, there...

Re: Where's my ambulance?

Re: Where's my ambulance?

The abuse of ambulance personnel has been going on for as long as I can remember.....but it used to be mainly drunks.

Re: Where's my ambulance?

This might be the case Margaret, but I am sure there would be a publicity firestorm if such things were seen to be happening overtly - that, however doesn't stop them from happening covertly.

Re: Where's my ambulance?

I am quite cynical about news stories from the BBC...at one time the BBC was a politically unbiased reporter of news, but in recent times I haven't found this to be so.(or perhaps I should say I have...
