It is alleged the two female and two male officers were assaulted at Queen’s Medical Centre in Nottingham on Wednesday night by a man who had been arrested in Broxtowe earlier in the evening.
Steven Unwin, of no fixed address, was charged with assaulting four emergency workers.
The 41-year-old also faces a fifth assault charge relating to an incident at HMP Nottingham last year.
He was due to appear before magistrates in Nottingham on Friday.
