Pennsylvania Nurse Aide Fired for Verbal Abuse
St. Mary's at Asbury Ridge, a nursing home facility located in Erie, Pennsylvania, is now operating under a provisional state license due to a nurse's aide who reportedly verbally and emotionally abused at least a dozen patients over a series of months.
The abuse began in late 2008 and was not discovered by the facility under February 2009, when they suspended and later fired the employee.
The facility Administrator said that the aide's comments were not threatening, just rude.
