Banjo,

beleive me what the hospital executive say publicly will be totally different to what happens within the walls of the office.

JamesH,
That may well be true but we do not know that at this time.

It could well be why she did not make it to the scheduled talks this week. The family are questioning the amount of support the hospital gave the nurses, who must have felt pretty demoralized by the whole thing. All the other staff were talking and probably sneering behind their backs, if not openly ridiculing them. Then there was the world wide publicity, extensive humiliation is hard to cope with.

Her brother said she was dedicated to her work and would be totally devastated and ashamed that she had been duped.

it seems she usually called home daily but did not call tuesday, wednesday or thursday. the family is due to make a statement soon so it may clear a few things up.

Let me support the words of JamesH by confirming that what the Hospital Management proclaimed to the media and what actually happened behind closed doors are likely 2 different scenarios.

The first words that came out of the Hospital Spokesman's mouth were virtually to deny any contribution to the stress the nurses would have been under - that no disciplinary action had been taken. My immediate thought was "Yeah! Right! Pull the other leg ...."

Anyone who has any experience in the Hospital industry would know
