Revealed: “shocking” levels of sexual assault in the NHS

A joint investigation published by The BMJ and The Guardian found that NHS trusts recorded more than 35,000 cases of rape, sexual assault, harassment, stalking, and abusive remarks, between 2017 and 2022. Despite the scale of the problem, less than one in 10 trusts has a dedicated policy to deal with sexual assault and harassment, and are no longer obliged to report abuse of staff to a central database. The findings have led medical colleges and unions to call for an independent inquiry and immediate action from the government.

I’m sure it wasn’t easy to take a stand but I’m glad that she did. There’s no place for perverts in the medical profession dealing with sick, vulnerable people. I wonder how many patients he assaulted.

So true , but on a more #PositiveNote , we can see 👁 how God is working to turn around negative #outcomes into positive #successes & at the same time #highlight the #shameful behaviours of unGodly people who have #lapsed in #their #moral #understanding and succumb to the devil through #lack of Faith in Jesus Christ Amen.

If you google that creep, his name doesn’t even come up. It’s like he was scrubbed from the internet.

Was this when Jimmy Saville was allowed to stay over on kids wards???

Your hats are beautiful. Very good to see you discovered this special talent. I hope you recover from your PTSD. What happened to you is an absolute travesty. Women who can’t give any details of their assault are somehow believed but you did not get the same courtesy even though you were actually credible.

Hope you can be strong ❤❤❤
