Chief nurse says sorry after 2am discharge 'fell far short' of standard (From Bucks Free Press)

• "My point exactly...not even a slight hint of sorry, but just empty words about falling short of standards or procedures...This is not about standards, you dim witted idiots ! It was about practising common sense at your workplace !!! and realising whether how will an elderly dementia sufferer is to make their way home at 2a.m without a relative or a viable transport method. I mean if a nurse could not make this sort of decision properly then I really have no confidence in their way of practising medicine or looking after people. No matter how competent they were with their set standards or procedures before hand."
