The number of physical attacks against hospital staff is rising in the U.K. New figures from Britain's National Health Service (NHS) show a six per cent rise in violent assaults on care workers in the past year. There were 63,199 reported assaults in 2012-13 across England, up from 59,744 from the previous year. That means more than 173 nurses, orderlies or other staff are assaulted every day. Unions say these figures do not tell the whole story. Union spokeswoman Christina McAnea said: "Sadly, this is only the tip of the iceberg as violence on NHS premises remains an under-reported problem. The [government] cuts and resultant pressure on services are causing growing patient frustration."

在英國(guó)，對(duì)醫(yī)護(hù)人員實(shí)施人身傷害的案件數(shù)量正在不斷增加。根據(jù)英國(guó)國(guó)民健康保險(xiǎn)制度的最新數(shù)據(jù)顯示，在過(guò)去一年中，對(duì)醫(yī)護(hù)人員實(shí)施暴力事件的數(shù)量增加了6個(gè)百分點(diǎn)。2012年到2013年之間，全英格蘭總共報(bào)道了6萬(wàn)3199起襲擊事件，比去年增加了5萬(wàn)9744件。這就意味著每天又有173名護(hù)士，或者是看護(hù)人或是其他職工遭到襲擊。工會(huì)稱(chēng)這些數(shù)據(jù)并不是全部。工會(huì)發(fā)言人克里斯蒂娜稱(chēng)：“這只是冰山一角，在英國(guó)國(guó)民健康保險(xiǎn)制度領(lǐng)域存在著許多報(bào)道不實(shí)的問(wèn)題。政府的削減，以及施加給服務(wù)部門(mén)的壓力都是造成病患情緒不穩(wěn)定的因素。

Britain's Health Minister Dr Dan Poulter condemned the attacks on hospital staff. He said: "Any physical or verbal abuse against NHS staff is totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated." He added: "It is outrageous that there have been so many physical assaults against NHS staff." He said there were measures to keep undesirable people out of hospitals. "Legal powers are available to remove people not requiring treatment from hospital premises in cases of nuisance behaviour, and to prosecute those who refuse to leave." Richard Hampton of the support group NHS Protect said: "NHS staff should expect to be able to provide care in a safe environment, free from violence and physical assault."

英國(guó)衛(wèi)生部部長(zhǎng)丹·保爾特博士譴責(zé)了對(duì)醫(yī)護(hù)人員的襲擊。他說(shuō)：“任何對(duì)醫(yī)護(hù)人員的人身傷害或是口頭侮辱都是不能夠接受的，我們絕不會(huì)容忍這樣的事情發(fā)生。”他還說(shuō)：“對(duì)醫(yī)護(hù)人員的人身傷害數(shù)量如此之多，這是讓人非常惱火的。”他說(shuō)我們有許多辦法將那些不受歡迎的人清除出醫(yī)院。我們可以借助法律手段來(lái)將那些行為舉止不良的病患清除醫(yī)院，并起訴那些不愿離開(kāi)的人。”英國(guó)國(guó)民健康保險(xiǎn)支援組織的理查德·漢普頓稱(chēng)：“醫(yī)護(hù)人員應(yīng)該在安全，不受暴力和人身傷害的環(huán)境中提供服務(wù)。”
