We have to take it out of the hands of health care workers. If a health care worker or a nurse gets injured due to violence, and the patient or family member, whoever attacks—the accused—breaks hospital equipment, the hospital will put a charge against them to recoup the hospital equipment, but will not help the health care worker bring a charge.
I alway say, “I'm not a lawyer. I'm not a criminal expert. Why is it for me to decide if a criminal charge should be placed?” It should be automatic, unless the court decides. It's not about the diagnostic. The diagnostic is all about safe staffing and appropriate training. That's how we take care of the sick. If it doesn't work, then it's a criminal issue.
