Re: Nurse suspended for offering to pray for patient's recovery

And the lady complained because she thought others might be offended by it. Funnily enough during her career only one other person complained - and not the person she was talking to.

Is there another link or source you are using as reference for your comments. From the BBC link all I get is :

Quote:


Ms Petrie was suspended, without pay, on 17 December after asking the elderly female patient if she would like a prayer said for her.
The patient, believed to be in her 70s, refused and Mrs Petrie insisted that she left the matter alone. The sick woman contacted the trust about the incident and Mrs Petrie was challenged by her superiors.
What gets me is that if Mrs Petrie is insisting the sick woman leaves the matter alone then she might be aware of the trouble she might get in if its reported to her employers.

I cannot see how you are reaching your conclusions/ basing your views on the BBC article alone. Is there another giving the nurses version of events that you could link to? Saying "They could have been talking about church beforehand and rounded it off with that question..." is as useful as me saying "She could have been imposing her religious views on the patient"
