Welfare and Safety of Workers and Patients in Public Health Service: Discussion
Colm Burke (Cork North Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
What if an assault takes place in a hospital and someone is actually hurt? In this case, I am referring to a situation where a nurse was held in a headlock and there was no Garda prosecution. Surely, there is something wrong with the system. In fairness to that person, if she files a statement with the health authority or HSE, is the HSE as the employer not obliged to make sure there is a full Garda investigation?
