did we have a post about this psycho carer ?
 
Caution for Great Harwood nurse who held down patient, 80 (From Lancashire Telegraph)

Quote:
A NURSE who “lost self-control” when he tackled an elderly Alzheimer’s patient to the floor and shook him has been let off with a warning.
Joseph Montgomery, 50, was working at the Mapleford Nursing Home, Accrington, when he used excessive force to restrain the 80-year-old.
Montgomery straddled the patient on the floor and vigorously shook him backwards and forwards by his shoulders
i have been away from town the past few months and i am not one for buying news papers but when i was handed a copy of the telegraph i wasnt realy surprised this idiot did somthing like this, i also wondered why i had seen him working at the margram so i guess this story explains why

i feel sorry for any patient that he may have assaulted and got away with and god help any anybody even a child that is in his care as he is clearly a danger to anyone vulnerable in the vacinity of him when he has a temper tantrum

my thoughts go out to the family of this poor old mans family

Don't like the idea that anyone working as a helper with old people or anyone else should use any sort of violence.. not at all... from the link the bloke denies any wrong and states he acted in a sensible way..still it is a worry.
I'd be the first to say this bloke should be sacked and charged with assault but my hunch is that this could be down to spectacular reporters.

I think it's awful. My dad had Alzhiemers and it's awful. I think the patients can be left open to abuse by nutters like him, he wants locking up.

To work with alzheimers or dementia patients you have to have the patience of a saint. Seems to me this bloke dont have it. If that had have been my mum he'd done that to ...i know what he would have got and it wouldnt have been a slapped wrist either.
