Assess the effects on those using the service of three different discriminatory practises in health and social care settings.
I will be listing 3 examples of the use of discriminatory practice in health and social care settings; I will be identifying which types of discriminatory practice these cases will apply to, for example, bullying, harassment, and stereotyping, physical or emotional abuse. First of all I will assess the true story of a serial killer nurse Beverly Allitt. I will be speaking about what she had done and the outcomes that then applied to her such as her life sentence punishment. I will also identify the potential negative effects caused by this discriminatory practice for the people involved in this case such as family other and care workers.
BEVERLY ALLITT
In 1991 Beverly Allitt also known as ‘Angel of death’ was a newly qualified nurse who worked on the children’s ward ‘Number 4’ in a tiny hospital in Lincolnshire. She was the suspect murderer of 4 young children and attempted to murder another 9 leaving them injured mentally and physically. This is including 7 week old baby Liam Taylor who was the first series of suspicious deaths. Beverly Allitt injected insulin in around 13 children attempting overdose and murder them, this was found throughout the blood samples of baby Paul Crampton who survived the attack because he was later on dismissed to another hospital. This was over a period of 61 days of Beverly Allitt working in the hospital and it then became a recognisable pattern to care workers that children were collapsing and dying around the time Beverly was on duty.
When Beverly Allitt was first arrested on suspicion of murder there was not enough evidence consumed. She denied any accusations that she was questioned about; Beverly kept using the excuse ‘I wasn’t there at the time.’
She was able to be let free on bail on the May 23rd 1991. At this time she then led onto believe she was
