Disgusting: Nursing home aides abuse dementia patient.
Two senior-care nurse aides are facing felony charges for allegedly filming themselves mistreating a dementia-stricken patient and broadcasting the footage on social media to attract followers.
The video shows Shy’Tiona Bishop, 20, and Jada Harris, 18, terrorizing the female senior at an assisted living center in Northeastern Florida, laughing and mocking her throughout, according to the Daily Mail. The footage was livestreamed on one of the staffers’ Instagram accounts on April 3 and aired during a press conference presided over by the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office on Monday.
The unnamed senior was confirmed to be a dementia patient at the Melbourne facility and can be heard screaming as the pair repeatedly joke and laugh at the camera while ignoring the woman’s cries.
At one point, the staffers purposely block the woman from entering her bathroom and begrudgingly help her put on a pair of pants while complaining about being forced to look after the senior. Both women have since been fired.
Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey slammed the footage as “disgusting” Monday after announcing the charges against the duo, who have since been relieved from their posts.
