    You aren't EMPLOYED to do this though, so your EMPLOYER (a financially stretched NHS) wont be liable if you act inappropriately!

    Well that about sums it up then. They, the NHS, are not bothered about abuse as such, just that they aren't held liable.

    It's a 2 birds 1 stone approach.


    The NHS (and any employer really) doesn't want anyone to get hurt or be abused.


    And equally the NHS (and any employer) doesn't want to have a financial liability for things that are easily avoided.


    I really don't see the issue - What is it that upsets you about this. No-one HAS to submit to these requirements, simply search for a job elsewhere.
