Nauru camps "psychiatrist's nightmare": doctor
"Australia: Almost 450 asylum seekers, including more than 100 children, are still being held on the island of Nauru as part of the [Australian] Federal Government's 'Pacific solution'.
According to the Government, most of the detainees are in good physical and mental health.
But Dr Maarten Dormaar, the former head psychiatrist at the two Nauru detention camps, tells a very different story.
Late last year he quit his job, unable to continue working in what he described as 'a psychiatrist's nightmare'."
