Seven members of staff at Swindon’s Great Western Hospital suspended for playing an internet game that involved them lying down have returned to work.
Great Western Hospitals Trust said it had made a decision not to dismiss any of those involved in the prank.
“We’re glad the staff are back doing what they do best. They need to understand unprofessional behaviour is unacceptable,” a spokeswoman said.
The images, since removed, were posted on the social networking site Facebook.
The game involves being pictured lying down with arms by your side and toes pointing towards the floor.
It is understood staff, including juniors, were pictured lying down on the hospital’s resuscitation trolleys, ward floors and the Wiltshire Air Ambulance helipad.
The suspensions followed allegations of unprofessional conduct while on night shift duty in the hospital during a weekend in August.
