Yep when I was in hosp a could of years ago there was a lump of steel
stuck in my hand apart from all the other grief, none of them apart from
a much older lady nurse would touch it she managed to get it out fine
with a pair of tweezers but told e not to mention it to anyone there
that she did that..

Seems that it wasn't their job to do that sort of thing and the
management told them that and not to. Mind you getting a doctor to do it
wasn't on the cards their visits were shall we say not all that
often;!....


Thankfully, some people will always want to help others. Unfortunately
there will always be people with precariously held positions of authority
who's remit seems solely to be to tell them not to!
