A nurse was subjected to sexual remarks such as "Let's have sex" and forcibly grabbed and touched by a dementia patient during a night shift patrol. Feeling frightened, the nurse shook off the patient's hand and fled the room.
The next morning, upon reporting the incident to the head nurse, the nurse was told, "You are a nurse, so you should endure it." Faced with this response, the nurse decided to leave the ward.
The post raises issues regarding workplace responses to such incidents and the physical and mental burden on nurses based on this experience.
