"hate to admit this but its similar to where my daughter is at mo... can see why shes not improving"
I have often thought that being in a place like that would make you worse |

As someone that has worked in similar environments, its quite refreshing to see good staffing levels and procedures in place.
However as it said, they are only allowed to show the ones capable of giving consent.
Its the ones that dont have that capacity that cause the issues |

Im sure if a camera crew were following me around at my place of work for a year the staffing levels would be fantastic too |

It isn't always about helping the 'patient'. Sometimes it's simply about keeping them, and others safe. |

"yes, scary stuff!
Whatever the staff are earning, it's not enough imo ... "
Sounds like it's a very tough place to work if there are 5 attacks on staff a week, on average. I bet it is rewarding too, if that's your chosen field to work in. I have always admired mental health nurses who work in the community. |

"problem is they can never have enough staff patients want to talk but staff are always too busy then they wonder why they kick off"
I don't think talking therapy is as readily available as it should be
The regime that hospitals run under prevent it from spontaneously happening which is a shame,because sometimes people want to talk right that minute and 3 hours later if someone is available to listen isn't good enough |

The viewing figures would go through the roof, astronomical even. |
