I suspect we'll never hear this as it's not the case on trial now, but the communication between consultants and management surely needs some sort of inquiry if LL receives a guilty verdict.I would love to hear more about the time spent on admin duty because I agree with you guys it is really bonkers. A band 6 nurse being placed on admin duties for what, two years? Whilst they investigate her potentially being a serial killer? What did she know at this point or what was she even told during this time, the rumour mill at work had to be crazy. I feel like it would have made anybody quit.
Plus as you guys have all said, just swapping her shift pattern or moving her to admin duty still allows her into the hospital to access patients that she was allegedly targeting. The fact the hospital seemed to just run their own experiment by moving her? But I'm no expert on employment law I know it does seem hard to be sacked by the NHS.
If the consultants are saying we think something worrying is happening here and have concerns about this nurse and the response is 'ok, we'll move her to the dayshift' that seems hugely negligent.
