You may have seen the recent campaign to stop abuse towards NHS staff, the video above has been widely shared across social media recently. I am afraid to say these examples are not rare, unfortunately we hear these kind of comments everyday. This video highlights just a small example of the language and aggression our staff experience every time they come to work. 
Are you concerned about domestic abuse during this time? Call 0330 3337 444 or access help here when it is safe to do so www.essexcompass.org.uk
