Care home whistleblower: We should have done more

A former employee of a care home that was closed last year following concerns about standards of care has said her attempts to end the abuse were ignored by her managers.

She told ITV News that she was accused of "neglecting the residents" and "not doing her job properly" after trying to report an assault on an elderly man.

“We kind of participated by standing by. We should have done more. One member of staff wanted to go to police, but was scared of losing their job," she told Channel 5 News.
