KXAN (Austin) – A nurse at the St. David Medical Center was accused on East 32 Street in Central Austin of trying to sexual assault on a patient on Valentine’s Day, according to the newly released court records submitted by Austin Police.
Jorge Armando Nonicio Moreno, 32, accused of violating his patient, who was on the oxygen in the intensive care unit, according to the detention of the arrest signed by the Austin Municipal Court judge on June 9.
Nonsu is accused of providing a massage to his patient, then touching her breasts and the genital area inappropriately. During a sexual test, a sexual sexual test was conducted the next day, he told the patient to examine that Nuncio used the product on his hand.
“Jorge Nonica Moreno was running himself in a professional manner while he was hiring at the St. David Medical Center,” Charles Bird’s lawyer said in a statement. “At all times, his interaction with patients was respected and supportive.”
“Jorge has fully cooperated with St. David and law enforcement while investigating this. He will continue to do so,” Bird added. “We are optimistic that this issue will be resolved quickly, and Jorge will remain an important member of the St. David family.”
Part of the accident saw a room cleaner, reported that Nonio’s vision was standing behind the patient, who was sitting with her dress. The employee told the police that this was “strange” and did not see “something like this completely” for 12 years.
The medical observations launched by Nonio, which the Austin police called for, showed that half a scale on the day of the accident. The notes did not mention that his patient has treatment problems that would require a massage or was given, according to the court registry.
“In his statement, Jorge admits that the victim is giving a massage with a lotion,” on her back and another on her upper legs and that during the operation that was “declined” and “move”.
The patient told a different nurse what happened and was told that he is connected to the number 911 and submitted a police report, according to the written statement, which accuses Nonio of “exploiting” “emotional dependency” of his patient in his role as a health care service provider.
The backgio has been passed
Nonnio was appointed as a nurse registered on January 9, 2023, after passing the background examination, according to the deputy head of the St. David Medical Center, Jacques Odum. The official added that before the complaint submitted on February 15, he had no disciplinary incidents or procedures against him. After the claim, it was suspended without pay.
After submitting allegations, the hospital conducted its internal investigation, which was “decisive”, according to Odom. Nonio returned to work on June 2 – nearly four months after the alleged accident – and made four seizures.
On June 10, on the day the arrest warrant was issued, Nonio Saint David was informed and turned himself into law. It is currently suspended waiting for the results of the case, according to Odom.
Nuncio is a registered nurse, capable of training in multiple cases, with an active license ended on May 31, 2027, according to KXAN review for his license Texas Nursing Council A website. His license was issued in 2022 and was re-released on May 28 this year-less than two weeks before he was arrested.
Unlike the Texas Medical Council, TBN does not reveal if the nurse has any previous disciplinary measures. TMB has strengthened its disciplinary disclosure after the Texas 2023 law, which was ignited by a series of Kxan investigations. This law is completely implemented in September.
KXAN asked the Texas Nursing Council if he was aware of this issue. We also asked the Texas Nurses Association whether the disciplinary disclosure is similar to TMB. We did not hear immediately.
