Registered sex offender groped mentally impaired woman in nursing home, government report states -- chicagotribune.com: "Contrary to a nursing home's assurance that a registered sex offender presented no recent problems, a newly obtained government report and interviews show that the man allegedly groped a mentally impaired woman at the facility last month.
The Asta Care Center of Toluca in central Illinois failed to fully investigate the incident, implement an appropriate care plan for the sexual predator, Frank Aoskad, or properly monitor him to protect others, according to a Department of Public Health report obtained by the Tribune Friday.
The Facility acknowledged that administrators erred in not interviewing Aoskad or the female about the alleged sexual abuse, as required. But they disputed the state's claim that the nursing home did not monitor Aoskad or have a proper care plan for him.
A Tribune article Friday chronicled allegations of sexual abuse against Aoskad, 80, as part of a wider examination of Illinois nursing homes' failures to notify local law enforcement that they housed convicted sex offenders, as required by law, or to implement plans to isolate, monitor and treat the offenders inside the facilities.
Aoskad is alleged to have molested female residents in two prior incidents at the Asta Toluca home and a sister facility in Bloomington, according to state investigators."
