Going off TT, I don't think IB comes across too badly. She is aware they didn't have a policy around trans staff members and was involved in a working group to discuss creating one. That included reviewing policy documents from other health boards, but the conclusion was to wait for the universal "One for Scotland" template rather than cobbling together their own based on documents from other health boards.
When asked for advice following the datix, she referred onward to HR rather than passing comment herself. So far, so professional.
Did want to point out at that the meetings she attended, not everyone could attend at short notice. I feel this is a common problem in clinical settings: clinical staff with patient contact can't attend a short notice meeting because it is in their clinic time or they are required to be on their wards as part of core staffing numbers. So decisions that impact clinical policy/practice can be made by predominantly non-clinical staff, with no practice experience of how that will work in the clinical environment.
