Nursing Home Employee Charged with Sexual Battery

By Levin & Perconti

ADVERTISEMENTS

A nurse?s aide had to quit her position after she complained about elderly abuse and no action was taken. Finally, she contacted an investigator at the attorney general?s office what she saw, an aide molesting two different nursing home patients. The aide has now been indicted on four counts of aggravated sexual battery. All four victims were residents at the nursing home, including one in a wheelchair and another patient who is blind. The man was caught sexually abusing a woman by fondling her breasts. The victim was described as confused and hurt. Although the employee left his position at the nursing home, he still has an active license to work as a nurse?s aide. The employee who quit is now a witness in the nursing home abuse case.
