Should medical staff be jailed for neglect?

Unfortunately, yes.

It is accepted that dangerous driving, which is deliberately reckless, and careless driving, which may be accidental, can both result in imprisonment. The only way to avoid prosecution for motoring offences is to avoid driving. Working in medicine brings considerable responsibility which is also enforced in law. However, nobody is forced to work in hospitals and clinics against their will. If the potential sanctions are not outweighed by the reward of caring for patients, then it's best to select another career.
