Seeking the help of a Tertiary Care Hospital

The Modern Psychiatric In-Patient Technician: Skilled Worker or Guard?

- This is the Ending I Always Wanted to Write for University on WatchThe dew on campus was moist with retribution. Or so it felt when Jacques Peters kneeled on on the grass and felt the wetness between his fingers. “It’s over, I’ve won” Jacques whispered to himself, as his eyes lay fixed on the bottom of...
