In listing healthcare staff accused or guilty of sexual abuse of patients, we hope to highlight this risk to patient safety. Government and healthcare organisations policies should be a zero tolerance approach towards sexual abuse of patients. Patients should report their concerns early……
“For every patient who makes a complaint, we think of them as a precious resource. Their complaint potentially protects the safety of hundreds, of other patients”
