A year after a doctor was killed inside the facility, OSHA has given Boston's Brigham & Women's Hospital a list of ways to improve safety, according to an article on the My Fox Boston website.
Federal safety officials have issued the hospital a Hazard Alert and some some staffers still have concerns about safety.
"They could have set an example of how you should do hospital security...since the shooting in January of last year, we've actually had more nurses physically assaulted this year probably than ever," said nurse Trish Powers.
The letter listed 14 recommendations to decrease that threat, including ensuring doors are locked after business hours and card access equipment is operational. It also suggested metal detectors to keep weapons out and called for improved security staffing and better training.
