BREMERTON — Three employees of a Bremerton nursing home have been fired over allegations they took nude cell phone pictures of residents.
The Kitsap Sun reports the state Department of Social and Health Services is investigating the Kitsap Health &Rehabilitation Center.
Administrators reported the alleged abuse to the Bremerton Police Department on Jan. 27. Staff members said the suspects showed the pictures to other staff members as a joke.
One licensed practical nurse told police he and the two others had sent funny pictures to each other but denied taking inappropriate photos of residents.
