2024-08-12 16:42:06 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

This “update” was in response to nurses being abused or mistreated by patients. It isn’t saying that patients can be denied care. It is reinforcing that nurses can choose to refuse to care for offending patients. Another nurse would then take over that patient’s care. https://www.rcn.org.uk/news-and-events/Press-Releases/rcn-responds-to-comments-wes-streeting-mp-on-refusal-to-treat-patients
