Rape, sex, abuse at University City nursing home for veterans

Report: Rape, sex, abuse at University City nursing home for veterans

By: Leisa Zigman

KSDK -- Missouri's Department of Health and Senior Services found serious violations regarding allegations of physical, sexual and verbal abuse inside a University City nursing home for veterans.

The I-Team obtained the 21 page report Tuesday night. The state had been investigating the K.F. Jammer Manor, West facility since April and recently completed its investigation.

According to the state's findings one resident made two allegations of rape but no one from the facility made a hotline call or alerted police as required by law. The resident eventually called 9-1-1. That same resident claimed she and a housekeeper had a sexual relationship. The report states, "During an interview the Director of Nursing said the resident alleged he/she had a sexual relationship with Housekeeper #1. Due to the resident's allegations, staff moved the housekeeper to the facility's other location. The Director of Nursing did not report any allegation of rape or a sexual relationship because, according to the report, she did not believe they happened.
