I got to work at the hospital this weekend for the weekend shift and found out something just horrific. I found out that one of the male CNA's had sexually abused a patient :angryfire :angryfire . This is something that makes my blood boil. I just can't believe how someone can be so perverted, selfish and the list can go on but I will stop there (I could have a page of name calling though). I just can't believe that a person could do that to harm someone else like that . I can't stop thinking of the patient and how traumatic that would be and makes me even feel bad for the person. He has been at the hospital for a long time too which makes it even worse. What is the most sickening is he worked at another hospital got canned for the same reason but it didn't show up on the background check (I don't know the deal there). I don't know what else even to say. I am so discusted. Does anyone know what the consequences would be? He better not be able to work with people ever again. I just hope he will get something that will make him lean his lesson. I don't know what else to say exept how discusted I am. He gives men in nursing a bad name. I think it is crappy that some bad apples have to give the rest of the men in nursing a bad name.
This world is full of devils. Their juice is meth, and crack. They prey on the young, the weak, the VULNERABLE.
The part about their "juice" is only partially true. Abusers come from all socioeconomic backgrounds.
While I understand and have sympathy for those who are falsly accused, I would not hesitate reporting someone if I had any inkling that they were being abusive in any way...at work or away from work.
train your kids to TRUST NO ONE!
The most important thing to do for your kids is to talk openly with them about what abuse is exactly and that no matter what anyone tells them, and ESPECIALLY if someone tells them NOT to tell anyone or makes threats, that they can come to you and tell you about it. Make sure they understand that there is no shame in talking about ANYTHING. And then believe your kids when they do.
