Nurse Redditors Rise Up with righteous indignation.. to lick the boot:

https://old.reddit.com/r/nursing/comments/1jlvkwt/nurses_at_a_pediatric_psych_facility_in_kentucky/

On March 8th a juvenile psych unit was overrun by 15 of its patients. Staff were assaulted and had to fight for their lives. Barricaded themselves in the nurses station (apparently a room) and called 911. When police arrived they were told they could not enter due to "unauthorized weapons" being brought into the facility. 911 operator told the terrified caller they couldn't come. Absolutely insane. This is local to me you all…. I'm about to drive down there with a sign. I'm currently taking a break from the profession (over 2 years at this point) and I'm becoming more and more sure I'll never go back. I left after being assaulted by 2 patients… being frequently being mandated (16+ hour shifts) was making me consider leaving and the assaults were the final straw.

This is as much on the cops as the facility.

If they know people are actively in danger inside they have all the probable cause they need to enter because of the exigent circumstances. If they wanted to, they could go in and if security tried to stop them they could be arrested for obstruction.

Buuuuutttt despite being fully empowered to help, they're also not required to and all that sounds like a lot of paperwork and what if one of those angry psych patients were to attack officer? They could be hurt!

Lol if they did that they'd be decried. "ICE is invading hospitals!" would be shouted from the roof tops and nurses would be going and on about evil LEOs are.

The nurses had to eat their own dog food, it happens. Next time maybe they'll tell security to let cops in

It's okay, bb. It's only the internet. iStillMissEd 7d ago #7992043 Edited 7d ago

Honestly, a lot of these hospitals are poorly mismanaged. It's evident from the story where some thought that cops with guns couldn't be allowed in, but they actually could. Very poor communication. Government subsidies make them lackadaisical.
