Tennessee CNA Pleads Guilty to Abusing Blind Resident
Joyce Stanley
We discussed Joyce Stanley and Etowah Health Care Center in previous blog entries. Stanley pled guilty on January 9, 2009 to assaulting a blind resident. Stanley hit a seventy-four year old blind woman with a clipboard and an incontinence pad. Ms. Stanley also slapped the victim and pulled her hair. She was sentenced to one year in jail, although she only has to serve thirty days in jail. The rest of her sentence will be served as probation. She also owes over $500 in fines.
