pointless

male student nurse gets annoyed at having to have a chaperone to examine female patients, so takes the NHS to court.
obviously.
this could not be more ridiculous. the article gives the impression that he's annoyed about this because it was directed at him because he's a male student nurse. sex discrimination, and nursing being a female dominated profession and all.
he seems to be unaware that ANY male health practitionor, be they nurse, doctor, or whatever, and any male student, be they nursing or medical (yes, medical students too) have to have a chaperone when examinining a female patient.
although female health practitioners do not have to have a chaperone present, they are strongly advised to have one.
and anyway, as a student, you'll always have chaperone with you when you're doing something like an intimate examination, whether you're male or female. it's common sense. as a student, you never go solo.
this character is missing the point entirely. i just can't believe Mr Justice Patrick Elias missed it too.
