Recognizing Sexual Harassment
Any kind of unwelcomed sexual behavior is harassment, especially if it persists after the victim has expressed their displeasure. Nursing home orderlies are committing sexual harassment when they:
- Use vulgar or suggestive language to residents
- Touch residents in a sexual way
- Expose themselves to residents
- Offer benefits to a resident in exchange for sexual acts
- Do anything to make a resident feel intimidated or afraid of being sexually abused
The people who are directly targeted by sexual harassment are not its only victims. Even if your loved one has only witnessed this kind of behavior in their nursing home, they have suffered from sexual harassment. A Minnesota nursing home abuse attorney can help you decide what to do if your loved one has suffered from this kind of inexcusable abuse.
