Health Minister David Anderson says there has been one violent attack on staff in Accident and Emergency in the past year.
Today in the House of Keys he was asked by Middle MHK Howard Quayle what’s done to protect staff at Noble’s Hospital from assault.
Mr Anderson said procedures are in place to help staff, and his department works with the police to minimise the risks.
He told MHKs attacks are rare:
