Hospital violence: Director suggests "Gold Shop" security to protect staff - female doctor resigns after attack

 

 

A hospital director has suggested that he may need to upgrade security to that used by gold shops to protect his staff.

 

Dr Chuphan Charnsamorn wants to see a "Panic Button" installed at Vibharam -Chai Prakan hospital so that the police are quickly on the scene to deal with troublemakers. 

 

Violence erupted earlier in the week at two hospitals in the Samut Prakan area. Two gangs were fighting after one of their number died.

 

Dr Chuphan said that a doctor and team had given CPR to the victim for 50 minutes and gave him excellent care before he succumbed. 

 

For her trouble a female doctor was smashed in the face during a melee. 

 

She has decided to resign amid fears of gang reprisals. Dr Chuphan said she had been offered an alternative position at one of the group's many other hospitals.

 

Other medical staff at the hospital have asked for time off after the fighting shattered morale. 

 

Now after several other similar problems with gangs the director feels it is time to upgrade security to that of a gold shop.

First thing.. take all this scum outside in public and CAP em.

Those cops need some training in courage, are they really that useless?

 

 

What a terrible situation, doctors who devote their lives helping people, are treated this way.

Scum utter scum, who were responsible for that disgusting display of thuggery.

Police should find them, then kick 7 bells out of them the way the Indian police do with bamboo canes.

That's worrying; it means these guys are acting with impunity outside of the law; reminds me a bit of the Colin Gunn thing in Nottingham; yeah, this kind of gang power thing ain't confined to Thailand.

I assume hospital has prayer room(s). Perhaps they should add "rumble rooms" so gangs can have a "safe space" for mayhem

Or get the local BiB to do their job and break up these gangs, I'm sure they know who they all are!

With an estimated 230,000 Police Officers in Thailand, there must be many just sitting around being severely under employed.

Get a couple of them with Assault Rifles ( And Training ) into every Hospital in the Country, and stop this Thuggish violence from these Retards against hard working and dedicated Hospital Staff.

Well done, you managed to get the Trump mention in on the first page , quite disappointing that it took so long though, six hours !!!!!!!!

   I was a bit concerned that this  thread wouldnt get a Trump mention, so well done for saving the day

They do not need any guards. It´s a hospital for crying out loud! The only thing they need is to amend the law and enforce the new amendment.

Let´s say 3 years in jail for all the people involved and 5 years for the instigators. A thing like that would send a clear message.

Maybe the BIB were too busy examining brown envelopes from other operations
