A senior had an electric razor put in his mouth to 'keep him quiet.'
B.C.’s College of Nurses and Midwives has suspended a nurse’s registration for two months for failing to report resident abuse.
Further, the July 14 decision said, Berg failed to engage with or respond to the college in its investigation. On Dec. 27, 2020, an aide advised Berg of another abuse incident involving the same resident. An aide reported to Berg that on Dec. 18, 2020 she witnessed another aide putting an electric razor in a resident’s mouth three times to attempt to “keep him quiet.”
The college is one of 18 regulatory bodies empowered under the Health Professions Act to regulate health professions in B.C. It regulates the practice of four distinct professions: nursing, practical nursing, psychiatric nursing and midwifery.
