The MUMN has urged nurses to ignore a case of cyber bullying.

In a statement this morning, it said it had been informed that a patient was using a social network to bully nurses working in a particular unit at Mater Dei Hospital.

"While nurses go out of their way to see to the needs of their patients, offensive remarks are being expressed on a particular social network, ridiculing such a noble profession in an attempt to lower the dignity of the nurses concerned," the union said.

It condemned the incident and appealed to nurses to ignore such cowardice.
