She said that the view from the nurses was that Patient B has dementia “and he is like that and these kind of things can happen”. Patient A came out of his room in his underwear and went straight to the nurse’s station where Ms Rodrigues Linhan was. Mr Murphy also found that Ms Rodrigues Linhan “was racially harassed by Patient A when he assaulted her while shouting racial abuse”.
