Nurses 'felt bullied and harassed' - RCN

The emergency unit at Wales' biggest hospital has a "culture of bullying, harassment and inappropriate behaviour", an inquiry has found.

A damning independent report said the issues at University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, affect staff at all levels.

It also found "authoritarian" managers and a "significant risk of harm to patients" in how the unit was run.

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board said it fully accepted the findings and recommendations.

It has set up an action group of staff, unions and managers to respond to the 46 points in the report.

The director of the Royal College of Nursing in Wales Tina Donnelly said nurses called the union's helpline because they felt they could not go to management.
