Olivia West has always been committed to the welfare of her fragile patients who are institutionalized in her hospital. But when she loses subsidies and government support, she finds herself ceding control to a pharmaceutical company with a nefarious agenda. What happens within the walls of West Women's Behavioral Center is scarier than the horrific hallucinations in the minds of its unhinged patients.
Hospital staff are reporting more violence and anti-social behaviour than ever before. In 2015, 8 staff were assaulted every hour – a new record high. At The Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham – one of the UK’s biggest hospitals – they think they have the answer. Here a private security force of 46 uniformed guards, and a sophisticated CCTV system, keep staff and patients safe. A colourful mixture of characters ranging from ex-soldiers, to bouncers, to former elite sportsmen, it’s the security team’s job to keep the hospital running smoothly. With more than 2 million visitors they have to deal with all aspects of crime and anti-social behaviour. All against a back drop of life changing and life saving procedures.
