it's part of the job to be racially abused if you're a healthcare assistant in a gastroenterology department? in what world?

In the world where you have to interact with the general public, many of whom have mental illnesses or abhorrent views and poor manners.

every restaurant i've worked in has ejected customers and banned them for anything like this

Do you think there's maybe a difference between a restauant and a hospital, and the services those two places provide?

why is that at all relevant?

most hospitals and general practices (and clinics etc) in the UK have a general abuse policy that means any patient who has a pattern of abusive behaviour, racist or not, can be refused treatment

Okay. So it sounds like the whole racism thing is neatly handled by that policy.

so suddenly it's okay because it's not specifically a policy against racism? what happened to the right to healthcare?
