The ostrich brigade

Posted by caroldimon on October 26, 2013 at 8:30 AM

Unfortunately at all levels in care, and also in other professions, there are many who prefer not to challenge the status quo. Many old, retired care workers remark, it was the same in our day. Then why was nothing done, and why do some of them block anybody else's attempts to do anything? Could it be guilt or do they believe others are saying that they know more than them? Time everybody worked together and listened.

People who dare to speak out against  intentional abuse (locking in cupboards or dungeons) or unintentional abuse, are crucified by all levels- staff and higher powers, See book the commodity of care- offers some analysis.

ie must all keep job. fear loss of work. fear repercussions. need to be same as group. want promotion. Bullying. Nobody listens or believes.
