A Sydney aged care worker has pleaded guilty to assaulting an elderly dementia patient after she was caught on camera. A colleague set up a Go Pro camera inside a room at the Poplars Nursing Home at North Epping last year after becoming increasingly concerned about Dana Gray’s behaviour and the safety of residents. Court documents detail the vision, in which Gray, 59, can be heard to yell “move” before grabbing the 85 year old’s glasses and throwing them onto the bed. The victim screams in distress and then begins to sob as Gray aggressively strips her of her cardigan, top and bra. Gray also slaps her four times and pulls her hair as she puts a night gown on her. When she is done, she swings a rubbish bag at the elderly patient’s head then leaves her with her bed in the high position so she cannot sit or lay down.
