Stretcher bearer attacked in Vendée: his state of health improves “slightly”, according to the Minister for Health. “A hospital is a sanctuary.
No violence against healthcare workers can be tolerated,” he said. An investigation into “violence against healthcare personnel with ITT of more than 8 days” was opened by the Sables-d’Olonne public prosecutor’s office. The stretcher bearer, named Guy, was violently attacked on Saturday by a person belonging to a group who came to accompany two patients.
