Not only has the decision of the NMC's Conduct and Competence Committee to strike off Nurse Haywood from the register caused significant media interest, but it has also angered many nurses. In trying to protect vulnerable patients, the central role of the NMC, it has incensed nurses who are frequently seen as the patient's only advocate, and may have even deterred some from attempting to highlight poor care.
护理及助产士管理局行为与能力委员会将海伍德护士从注册名单中除名的决定,不仅引起了媒体的广泛关注,也激怒了许多护士。护理及助产士管理局的核心职责是保护弱势患者,但这一决定却激怒了那些常被视为患者唯一拥护者的护士,甚至可能使一些人不敢再试图揭露糟糕的护理情况。
