A shocking video surfaced on social media in which a carer named Stacey George, 46, can be seen repeatedly hitting a 78-year-old woman, Sabina Marsden, suffering from dementia.
The 1.34-minute clip then shows the carer pulling off a blanket that the old lady is using and then throwing it back on her. She further goes on to humiliate the dementia patient by telling her that she “stinks”.
The video was secretly shot by the family on a hidden camera. Her daughter Gina Owen watched the abuse in real time as it was live-streamed to her mobile phone. The carer was then asked to leave.
While George was fired from by Mega Care after the attack came to light, she was only handed a caution by Northamptonshire Police despite admitting assault on June 13 last year, according to an Independent report. The clip was later uploaded by the family to warn others about the cruel treatment and abuse by helpers.
