Panorama - Failings in care system

Just wondered if anyone else is watching this.

I used to work in a care setting where the staff were not great and given all the publicity thought I'd watch this.

Oh I started another thread. But actually I don't think I can watch anymore. It's horrendous - I feel like giving those staff members a good kicking.

LemoryMane · 31/05/2011 21:10

I am finding it too hard to watch.

What absolute bastards.

lizziemun · 31/05/2011 21:11

I was just thinking the same.

LemoryMane · 31/05/2011 21:14

These 'care workers' seem to be of extremely low intelligence and very, very cruel. Horrible. I'm going to have to turn over Sad

It is proving difficult to watch.

Terrifying to think that the residents are the ones who are classed as mentally disturbed!

:(

I can't watch this. I'm horrified.

chinateacup · 31/05/2011 21:15

Yep have just turned over. Horrible. Makes me sad.

NormanTebbit · 31/05/2011 21:15

Who the hell is in charge here?

msrisotto · 31/05/2011 21:17

Fuck this is hard to watch, those poor poor patients. Bastard support workers.

NormanTebbit · 31/05/2011 21:17

I want to see what the NHS trust has yo say about it, but I have to turn over everytime someone gets assaulted.

msrisotto · 31/05/2011 21:17

I want to kick that senior support worker i tell you.

NormanTebbit · 31/05/2011 21:18

His poor poor parents

Ben10isthespawnofthedevil · 31/05/2011 21:19

:(

NormanTebbit · 31/05/2011 21:19

I hope they throw the book at them for assault.

msrisotto · 31/05/2011 21:19

I hope some people get arrested for this. There's assault caught on tv.

NormanTebbit · 31/05/2011 21:22

I can't believe what I am seeing here. WTF - who the hell is in charge?

MorningCoffee · 31/05/2011 21:24

This is truly awful and so so Sad I have worked in a setting like this and i am so upset by the mis treatment of these vulnerable adults i can't tell you, this has really upset me, i hope they are arrested, this is extreme abuse in so many ways.

Ormirian · 31/05/2011 21:26

Fuck!

Shock

DS keeps shouting at the tv.

What a bunch of shits!

Ben10isthespawnofthedevil · 31/05/2011 21:29

Shock what a bunch of cunts

NormanTebbit · 31/05/2011 21:29

I'd cheerfully push Wayne out of a second storey window

I can't begin to imagine how awful those residents feel let alone their famillies when they saw this!

That bastard Wayne should be in prison along with quite a few others, how can they just sit there and watch? FUCKING ANIMALS Angry

I don't know whether I am more horrified or heartbroken I really don't...

This is why disclosures are useless, surely this can't be happening all over the country :(

OP posts:
Ormirian · 31/05/2011 21:35

Why are they still showing this? What is the point? We've got the frigging point! I want to know what they have done about it.

Garrrggghhhh! Angry

maddiemostmerry · 31/05/2011 21:35

Those poor residents.

How can those staff live with themselves?

If they go to prison they may get a taste of their own medicine.

Despicable

pinguwings · 31/05/2011 21:36

FUCK.

NO FUCKING WAY.

This is the most horrendous thing i've ever seen. Why on earth has no one whistle blown this before? Why aren't these 'staff' in prison?

I hope to God this changes things.
