Nurse Accused of Abusing Fragile Children Twice
1 Apr
Summary
- Nurse allegedly abused two medically fragile children in separate incidents.
- Surveillance video captured the alleged abuse in both cases.
- Attorneys suspect more victims may exist and urge reporting.

A home health nurse is facing serious allegations of abusing two medically fragile children in separate incidents. The nurse, Cindy Dresser, was first charged with assaulting and endangering a 1-year-old in Delaware County. Astonishingly, months later, she was employed by a different home health agency in Bucks County, where she now faces similar charges. In both cases, surveillance video reportedly captured the alleged abuse, with one video showing the nurse appearing to slam a child into a crib and then cover them with a blanket. In Delaware County, the lawsuit alleges Dresser was assigned to care for a medically compromised infant, failing to monitor vital signs and sleeping through medical alerts. The attorneys for the Delaware County family are investigating the possibility of more victims and are urging other families to report any potential abuse to the authorities.
