A nurse who was under investigation for allegedly assaulting a two-year-old was still working in a remote NT clinic when she died at her desk last week. The nurse died of a suspected heart attack but the Central Australia Health Service would not confirm an question. “It is inappropriate to comment on any matters that are in the hands of the Coroner,” a spokeswoman for the service said. The service also refused to answer why the nurse was still employed in the NT while she was being investigated over an alleged assault of a patient.
