Petition Make it law for all care workers to wear body cameras
Make it law for care workers to wear body cameras with voice recorders to protect vulnerable patients. Footage could be used in a court of law if needed. I have been a care worker for 9 years in community care, home, nursing and 1:1 care. My dad had advanced Alzheimer's.
More details
I have worked with older people and people with Alzheimer's, learning disabilities and down syndrome. Throughout my career I have seen these precious, vulnerable people being abused. Someone needs to protect them and be their voice. 'No excuse for abuse, be my voice'.
