A health worker in south-east Queensland has been banned from practice for attempting to have oral sex with a patient. The man was working as an Aboriginal health worker at the Murri Health Group in Caboolture, north of Brisbane, where he conducted regular health checks on patients. About 18 months into his job, an interaction with a male patient led to him being criminally charged with two counts of sexual assault. He has now been banned from providing health care after a ruling by the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal (QCAT).
