    Nurses should feel free to challenge doctors' decisions, particularly in the wake of the Gosport War Memorial Hospital scandal, experts have said.

    More than 450 hospital patients died after being given powerful painkillers inappropriately, a report concluded in June.

    Writing in the British Medical Journal, Prof David Thompson from Queen's University, Belfast, and nursing consultant Philip Darbyshire said the drugs, prescribed by a doctor, were "usually administered by nurses, who often determined exact doses".

    They said Gosport should be a "tipping point" for the "dance of deference" between nurses and doctors.
