Last week the WBZ I-Team reported that the Department of Public Health was proposing taking away non-lethal tools from security officers at Tewksbury State Hospital. On Thursday it did just that.  The decision came just months after the state trained and issued the security team the equipment. The increased security measures were implemented in the wake of an I-Team investigation that uncovered unsafe conditions and thousands of calls to police for help. Nurse says patients, staff at risk Ryan Wilkins is a registered nurse at Tewksbury State Hospital. “I think it’s incredibly unsafe and dangerous,” Wilkins told the I-Team, furious that the state is taking away tactical equipment from campus security. It’s a decision that he says is leaving the staff and patients vulnerable to serious injury. “We have a security force inside of our building that responds within seconds to our calls for help and to help intervene in behavioral situations,” Wilkins said. “We need their assistance, and we need them to be amply equipped to be able to do that job.” Tewksbury is a public hospital with a growing mental health population and treats some of the most dangerous and mentally ill patients.

He's with you

Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for being with me when ever I need You. You have supported me and held me up through the worst times of my life. Thank you; I always know that I have You to lean on when everything seems to be going wrong. Even when I do not understand I know that you have it under control. In Jesus Name Amen

Paths Traveled

In my life for some reason I seem to go to God last, I know better because He has always has taken care of me, He has always comforted me and when I look back it has always been something that has taught me what I needed (I don’t think I am the only one). If I would consult the one and only, the creator of the world, it would lesson some of the heartache we go through unnecessarily. I say unnecessarily because when we let Him be the guide for every path we travel we find out over and over again that He’s got it under control.

He’s Got This

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. Isaiah 43:2 ESV But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31 ESV Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10 ESV
