Should I Delete That?

One false allegation destroyed my career... with Jess Thorpe

Should I Delete That?

Show Notes

Jess was an NHS nurse working on a mental health ward when a false accusation was made against her, which led into a spiral of bureaucracy that ended her nursing career and changed her life forever…

Although Jess very rarely does interviews - her story was highly publicised in the UK press, so we wanted to give her the opportunity to tell her story in full and in her own words.

We spoke to Jess about the fragility of women’s reputations, the pressures on nurses and healthcare professionals and how we can both love the NHS but also hold it accountable on the occasions that it does let us down.
