A former Oakden aged-care home staff will be the first employee to be charged by police since the Chief Psychiatrist’s damning report into abuse and neglect at the facility. SA Police said a 63-year-old man had been reported for aggravated assault, but had yet to be formally charged or receive a summons to appear in court. The aggravated assault is alleged to have occurred at the nursing home on May 9, less than three weeks after Chief Psychiatrist Aaron Groves’ report was released. The employee is one of nine former Oakden staff to have been referred to police following a SA Health investigation, triggered by Chief Psychiatrist Aaron Groves’ report. Police confirmed one former employee remained under investigation, while another would not be charged because of insufficient evidence.
