A nurse says the Canterbury District Health Board isn't telling the full story about sexual assault complaints laid by staff. Official information released to RNZ shows since 2015, it has recorded almost seventy complaints of sexual assault. All but two of those complaints were from staff working in mental health. But a DHB nurse, who doesn't work in mental health, says she's been sexually harassed and assaulted and her complaints have been ignored. DHB chief executive David Meates says any form of abuse - including from patients to staff is taken extremely seriously.
