Summary
In this article, published by Ayiecho Odembi Consultancy, the author draws on personal experiences as a Black nurse and Patient to illustrate the link between racism and patient safety.
"Nursing while black on the NHS is a skill I had mastered but nothing had prepared me for being a patient while black on the NHS and how the system is stacked against you and how lonely, frustrating, anxious, helpless and dare I say angry you feel while also wrestling with the guilt of essentially raging against your employer and not wanting to cause a fuss because it is the NHS, you love the NHS, you are constantly reminded how lucky we are to have the NHS, so it would be in very bad faith to complain."
