I love this ~ very compassionate mindset ~ ![]() British nursing home: Access to prostitutes a ‘human right’ By Stephen C. Webster Tuesday, January 29, 2013 15:45 EST The director of a nursing home in East Sussex, Great Britain argued recently that access to sex workers is a “human right,” saying her staff has helped residents of the Chaseley Trust home access adult services when they are feeling frustrated. “People have needs, so sometimes we might need to set up a room in a certain way,” Chaseley manager Sue Wyatt told The Sun, calling access to sex workers a “human right.” “We are there to help,” she reportedly said. “We use a private consultant who arranges everything. They are an independent person who works in the home. She puts people in touch with people. We respect our residents as individuals so that’s why we help this to happen.” Local officials began investigating the home’s unusual policy after the former manager, Helena Barrow, said that she’d helped organize a strip show on the premises, according to The Daily Mail. Staff reportedly had a code — a red sock on the door knob — to let them know when residents needed privacy. “We care for adults from the age of 18 with all types of disability, from spinal injury, Acquired Brain Injury and stroke, to Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease and a wide range of other neurological conditions,” Chaseley’s website explains. “Covering a wide age range, Chaseley Home and Bungalows have a ‘family’ feel where everyone feels valued and their input welcomed.” Officials on the East Sussex County Council said they were concerned the policy left potentially vulnerable residents at risk of exploitation. Prostitution is not a crime in the U.K., but lawmakers have been under pressure to review those laws and implement a scheme that explicitly bans the selling of sex. http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/01/29/british-nursing-home-access-to-prostitutes-a-human-right/ |

Bravo! Obviously, it has to be safe and consensual. These patients are more than just their particular disability, and treating them as whole human beings is a great thing. |

Prostitution is not a crime in the U.K., but lawmakers have been under pressure to review those laws and implement a scheme that explicitly bans the selling of sex. Why is it that when something seems to be working some arseholes want to wreck it? |
