The family of another resident at a St. Catharines long-term care home has come forward with allegations of abuse.
St. Catharines resident Gerald Purcell alleged that his 71-year-old wife Brenda was assaulted several times by another resident at West Park Health Centre long-term care home, in the 11 months she has lived at the Pelham Road facility.
“The last time, which really shocked me, is they never even notified me,” he said, adding he learned about the incident after visiting his wife in mid-December.
