What do the nurses who were abusing and videotaping the elderly say?

After the social outcry that was caused, the nurses who participated in the videos of psychological abuse of the elderly in a care home in Northern Greece, spoke to “Tunnel”.

“I also participated in these videos, but they were not made the way they looked,” said the nurse, who appeared for fun as the daughter of an old woman. “I am really shocked. We did it with love. The old woman then laughed,” she claimed.

In a relevant question of the journalist of the show about the mockery and ridicule of the helpless elderly woman, she stated:

“I’m really ashamed of myself from the moment I saw this thing. Because I did not do it with a bad intention. I say this with all my soul. I want to apologize. I had no reason or intention to hurt or harm anyone, either physically or mentally,” she concluded.

The nurse, who records with his mobile phone the “joke” of his colleagues on the helpless old women, speaks of an “individual incident” and states that he regrets everything.

“I have never abused anyone and when I saw these videos my legs were cut off. It was something childish and stupid. We never intended to harm anyone. There was no deceit, no psychological abuse. I declare regret. What was shown does not honor me. I want to apologize to everyone,” he told the Tunnel.

“Death certificates were ready in advance…”

A nurse who has worked for years in nursing homes and other clinics, for the first time publicly denounces what is happening behind closed doors.

“I have been confronted with very horrible images all these years. Most inmates in these centers are tortured. They do not eat properly and do not take their medication as required. The violence I experienced made me leave the profession. I have seen many times cases of abuse towards helpless inmates. When I mentioned what was happening, I lost my job. I did not have the courage to report it to the authorities.”

The outrage in the whole case, according to her claims, is that “many times the death certificates are ready in advance and the nurse simply writes as a result of “heart failure “”.

“The reason I came forward to talk was what I saw on your show. More people must find the courage to speak and not be afraid,” she concluded.
