Sacked nurse

Andrew Emerson, who was sacked last September after residents at an old people's home in Selsey, West Sussex, insisted on being treated by a female nurse, was awarded more than £2,000 compensation and back pay by a industrial tribunal in Southampton. The home's owner, Pam Mears, wrote to him that she had to respect the residents' wishes.
