The alleged facts: patients would have undergone deprivation every day for about three years and would have been placed in isolation in an abusive manner by nurses and orderlies from the psychiatric hospital of Ravenel, located in Mirecourt in the Vosges.
A dozen patients would have been mistreated daily
Problem: these patients (ten) suffer from a severe handicap and their skills to talk about what happened to them are called into question.
We must therefore first wait for an evaluation to be carried out on their ability to testify in the context of the investigation.
While awaiting the conclusions of the investigation and the appearance before a disciplinary council, the three nurses (including an intern) and both nurses suspected were suspended.
The abuse was reported by staff
Alerts regarding abusewithin the facility had been made by nursing staff.
In establishments of this type, this is unfortunately not a unique case since certain employees sometimes exceed the limits with fragile patients such as seniors or people suffering from mental and / or physical disorders.
