Re: Re: Litigation Culture
by The Saint
One of the problems - on the other side of the coin - is that ambulance staff are frequently the subject of complaints and litigation from members of the public, patients and their families and - incredibly - people who just happen to take offence for no obvious reason. They all see "A Nice Bit Of Compo" in front of their eyes, courtesy of the American litigation culture which we now have over here. As a paramedic friend put it last year, when she was the subject of a ludicrous complaint from a patients' family: "God Knows what I did - I can only imagine that I forgot to compliment them on the curtains and soft furnishings."

Welcome to Random Acts Of Reality, a Blog based in London, England, written by an E.M.T working for the London Ambulance Service. Also, number one search result for "Womble porn". All names have be changed to protect the guilty. This Blog was previously known as "Why I Hate Humanity" but the antipsychotic medication seems to have kicked in.
