An investigation into a secure mental health hospital has uncovered "abusive and inappropriate treatment of vulnerable patients", according to the BBC.
One young woman was locked in a seclusion room for 17 days, was then allowed out for a day, only to be hauled back in for another ten days. Hidden camera footage also shows staff describe 23-year-old Harley as a "cancer" who "needs a good thrashing".
Secret filming by BBC Panorama captured the moment Harley was forced into a seclusion room at the Edenfield Centre in Prestwich. The hidden camera had already recorded staff justifying their actions and agreeing they would not try to reason with her this time.
