Sexual Abuse Uncovered Minnesota Nursing Home

A case of nursing home sexual abuse has been discovered at Texas Terrace Care Center in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

The Minnesota Health Department alleges that residents at the facility reported the abuse. Reportedly, the male employee entered a female resident's room and started "kissing her several times" on the cheek and mouth. She also alleges that the man tickled her diaper, touched her sexually, and assaulted her. She stated that she was surprised and thought "this can't be happening". Despite the woman's dementia, she clearly remembered the incident.

Two more residents alleged that the same employee had kissed them.

The facility fired the employee, who denied the allegations. The police have referred the case for possible criminal sexual assault charges.
