MARKHAM – York regional police say a home care nurse in Markham, Ont., is accused of sexually assaulting a nursing student he was instructing.
Police say the 58-year-old man worked as a nurse preceptor, a role where experienced practitioners guide and supervise newer nurses.
Officers say the man went to several home visits with a student he was instructing as part of her training.
Police allege that after the visits, he drove the student to a secluded location and groped her.
Investigators say he is charged with sexual assault.
Police say the student contacted police this month, and they believe there may be other victims.
