A WOMAN has been jailed after a series of assaults on medical staff at the Royal Hampshire County Hospital.
Claire Louise Trussler, 38 admitted the attacks on Emma Ford, Mark Brewer, Thomas Bosley, Christopher Jones and Rhianwen Evans, all on February 24.
Trussler, of Anton Road, Andover, also pleaded guilty to criminal damage to A4 folders, a light and wall in an eye testing room belonging to Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust.
Magistrates in Basingstoke jailed her for 12 weeks reflecting the seriousness of the offences on paramedics on hospital premises.
The sentence was deemed served because of the time Trussler has already spent in detention.
She was also ordered to pay £115 victim surcharge.
