Disgusted with the behaviour of a senior member of staff

"Disgusted with the behaviour of a senior member of staff"

About: Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust / Inpatient mental health care

(as the patient),

Whilst as an inpatient at Great Oaks Adult mental Health Unit in Scunthorpe I noticed that a member of the crisis team was playing on a Wii in a patient area at an unreasonable hour (after 2am). I found this unacceptable considering they were meant to be on duty.

This made me very upset and angry to think a member of staff could possibly get away with this. As the TV is turned off at 12.30am for patients, this should not be allowed. I am very disgusted with their behaviour as they are a senior member of staff. It seems to me it just goes to show what they can get a good wage for.
